Bindi Irwin has said she is keeping happy for her late father Steve Irwin, who was killed earlier this year.
Onlookers were surprised the eight-year-old looked so happy at the TV naturalist�s memorial service after dying whilst filming Stingrays in September, but Bindi says she is simply fulfilling her father�s wishes.
She tells the News Of The World , �He would be so happy that I'm happy. When I look back at all the memories, really that's what Daddy wanted the most for me.
"Yeah, some people might think, �Oh my word she's happy, how can she be?' But, me personally, I think everyone has a choice of being happy or sad.
"He hated it when I cried. If my pet goldfish died, he cried with me. So I'm trying really hard not to make him really sad that I'm sad.
"Sometimes it's really sad and I have to cry a little bit. But I really think - I really believe - he's just in another world."
Bindi � who has been filming her own TV show �Jungle Girl' - also vowed to follow in her father�s animal loving footsteps.
�My daddy was my hero, he was always there for me. He taught me so many things. But most of all, he was fun. I want to help endangered wildlife like my dad," she says.
