WHAT LIONS ARE WHISPERING with KEVIN RICHARDSON

 

 

Through an intimate and enlightening conversation with Kevin Richardson, we learn why he is called The Lion Whisperer, but what makes Kevin exceptional is that he listens to what lions are telling us. Through his unique relationships with his lions, Kevin opens a window into the mind behind the mane. Our conversation is a unblemished view into Kevin’s own journey of passion for lions, and why he has dedicated his life to saving them and ending the industrialized farming of lions as nothing more than commodity, and exposing the dark underbelly of canned lion hunts. Manipulating nature and an iconic species for activity based “lion theme parks” by offering up-close interactions with captive hand-raised lions from cub petting to lion walking, can be treacherous for the naïve volunteer or visitor, and for the lions- a dangerous business model where nature bites back and the ultimate tragedy strikes: Death, for a person and for a lion.
