Major US magazine's embarrassing gaffe about Bindi Irwin's visit to Tasmania - but many Aussies are celebrating the blunder

The Irwins recently headed off to Tasmania for a family holiday.

'While it appears this an unfortunate mistake, as clearly Tasmania is a long way from Tanzania, in an odd way it gives us an ability to create even more buzz about our iconic Cradle Mountain,' Hills said. 'When influencers like Bindi Irwin share snapshots of our island, especially while enjoying it with friends and family, it has great reach and potential impact. 'Hopefully those reading the article will visit Bindi's actual post and see those snow-capped mountains and the iconic cradle landscape, sparking them to investigate their own trip to Tassie, during the winter months.'
