Mick Schumacher visits the Australia Zoo

The Australia Zoo is a 700-acre zoo owned by the wife of by late Steve Irwin, Terri Irwin. Steve Irwin may have lost his life, but his family is continuing his legacy and love for animals. It is now Robert, Steve’s son, who has taken up the duties of his father and is in charge of the zoo, along with a few other family members.

With his recent post, Mick encourages everyone to check out Wildlife Warriors. Which is a venture which seeks people’s help to conserve and protect wildlife around the world.

In the video above, Robert is feeding a massive crocodile in a closed-off section. Wildlife Warriors work in animal conservation as we can read in the tweet.

Mick suffered a crash in the qualifying of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and therefore did not race. This decision was made by Haas to conserve the vehicle parts for the next race amid the aggressive cost cap.

This time around, however, Mick Schumacher would look to improve upon his previous season. The new Haas VF-22 Challenger is already showing promise and could be a surprise to the midfield in the new season.

Mick’s teammate Kevin Magnussen has already finished both the races in the top 10, bringing some good points for the American Constructors. And now Mick would want to finish in points, or at least keep up the promising performance.
