Robert Irwin, the 13-year-old son of the late Steve Irwin sent viewers impressed on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" on Thursday as he continued his father's legacy.

The teen is just as enthusiastic about animals as his late father and brought with him a dwarf crocodile, a screaming armadillo a red-tailed boa constrictor snake and an adorable sloth, to meet the talk show host, reported Independent.

Listening to the 13-year-old speak about his love for animals, Fallon told him: "This is so cool to see you like this. You're actually your dad."

"My dad was actually on The Tonight Show quite a while ago. So it's really nice to be able to follow in his footsteps. It's really great," Robert told Jimmy.
 

Robert grew up with sister Bindi surrounded by animals at Australia Zoo and feels like the "luckiest kid on planet earth" because of the experience.
