Steve Irwin’s 14-year-old son, Robert Irwin is just as passionate about animals has his father.

The Aussie teen shared that passion with The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon by introducing him to so absolutely adorable baby animals.

Jimmy got to cuddle with some baby otters and even feed a baby zebra …

But things got a little uncomfortable when a baby porcupine found his way onto Jimmy’s lap.

While Robert – who was promoting his new TV show Crikey! It’s the Irwins – explained the way porcupines use their quills as a defence mechanism, Jimmy understandably got more and more nervous.

This isn’t the first time Robert has taken Jimmy outside of his comfort zone either.

The animal conservationist has appeared on The Tonight Show several times to show off some of the world’s more amazing creatures, including baby black bears, sloths and baby kangaroos.

Just a few months ago, actor Kevin Hart – who was also visiting the late night show – got to meet some of these animals too … And he was NOT a fan, freaking out at the presence of a baby ostrich and everything else that followed.
