What happens

The Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course is a 2002 adventure comedy film based on the nature documentary television series The Crocodile Hunter. It stars Steve Irwin, his wife Terri Irwin in her film debut, Magda Szubanski and David Wenham, and was directed by frequent Irwin collaborator John Stainton. Released in between the series' fourth and fifth seasons, Collision Course follows Steve and Terri attempting to save a crocodile from "poachers", unaware that the two men are actually American CIA agents on their trail as the crocodile has unwittingly swallowed a satellite tracking beacon. This was Steve Irwin's final film appearance before his death in 2006. The film was theatrically released on 12 July 2002 in the United States by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures and internationally by 20th Century Fox. It received mixed reviews but grossed $33.4 million on a $12 million budget. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
