Bindi Irwin gives a thumbs up to the cameras as she arrives for dance practice in Los Angeles on Wednesday (October 28).
The 17-year-old conservationist met up with pro partner Derek Hough and fellow competitor Alek Skarlatos to get to work on their dance, and again the next day.
“Living at the zoo, it’s a lot easier to study online because I have all the tools at my fingertips. I can learn from my own surroundings. That helps a lot,” Bindi dished to People about how she manages schoolwork on top of her work at the Australia Zoo.
She added, “I never knew how much I already knew about business and tourism until I started taking these courses. We just started ticking things off. After I’m done with that, I want to go to work full-time at the zoo. I love working there.”
Bindi already has her degree certificate in business.
