Sofia Bravo What are you talking about?. We had a lion whisperer here in my own country he worked, played, fed the lions from birth, he said unfortunately you have to boss them to control them, he was sad about that. One day one of the lions turned suddenly and killed one of the people that also worked with them. THEY ARE BORN HUNTERS AND THIS CAN NOT BE TAKEN FROM THEM, he said when they lick you they are tasting you, leave them alone in the wild where they BELONG to do their own thing. Humans are humans and I thought we were much, much smarter but I think Humans are stupid trying to domesticate such creatures and now lions are on the endangered list, because deep down we fear them. LEAVE THEM ALONE.

[@GTAVALE]

@@K4242-r6l our ancestors did this with wild dogs and wolves and then thanks to evolution we have dogs, they also did the same with ancestors of horses cows cats and pigs, they were all wild animals but we domesticated them, we could do the same with lions probably, but it would take many generations also they are in the verge of extintion because of poachers so it's safer to have them in captivity

[@abthurd]

I'm amazed by how well he understands the lions (not just knowing) and the lions reciprocate that. Point to see, when he called Bobcat (?) and he immediately ran towards him, fully understands that it is time for them to go home. When Gabby was moody because of the small fight, he knew he need to backaway a bit despite their bonding. Gabby was clearly saying she does not want to be bothered. I read a comment someone saying he's treating the lions like a pet. He's definitely did not treat them like a pet. While it is true he fed them, but he is trying his best to understand them and allow them to be what they are. I think it is important to note that the lions are only comfortable with Kevin and maybe a few other sanctuary keepers (the growling etc etc). A pet is conditioned to expect humans will treat them like their owners. But not with this lions.

I found you during a bout of insomnia last night, and I was so amazed I spent about 4 hours watching your videos and forgot about how miserable I was. You and your animals are the greatest thing I've ever seen.. Greetings from California, and thank you for what you do! P.s. I've decided Meg is my sprit animal.. Same name, I'm a Leo.. It works ;)

[@novalong]

Wow, Bobcat really doesn't like people that close to him, really shows the level of love and respect him and Kevin share. Score another point for Gabby vs Kevin, her love and joy cannot be contained, lol. They look so perfect, walking side by side stretching their legs. That was another first, Gabby and Bobcat disputing pieces of meat. We all love our treats, though. 🥰🦁❣

[@michaelstapleton2768]

Kevin and Bobcat’s conversation makes my heart melt and heartwarming to watch and listen. So much love and affection❤️

Yep, actually you can just google it as there are alot of interesting websites you can read about it, a gene in some lionesses give them manes, one famous maned lioness leads her own pride herself, there are probably videos on here about them aswell, tell me if you can't find them

[@naazishbaig2243]

Kevin richardson ur the real and actual hero . Im a huge fan of urs n the work u do . Today only i showed one of ur videos to my mom in it george and yame were hugging u n loving u and my mom was astonished watching it her 1st word were "how is it possible how can such huge lions love a human so much and how can a human just walk amidst so many lions" so ur a hero in true sense .

[@Revelation13-8]

Animals are so cool, seems like all animals can co exist with humans if you raise them and treat them with the utmost respect and love like it was your own pet or even as your own child , sadly many people dont treat animals good and it needs to stop.

[@saurlemnz7794]

ABSOLUTELY

[@bigheadhammer5886]

no i disagree. animals act on instinct. they live in the WILD cause they are built to survive and kill. this shit right here is very very special. but one little misunderstanding with the beast and the guy may be eaten alive

[@aqwlegends]

+BIG HEAD HAMMER No. First off, these Lions aren't "Wild" they have been raised inside enclosures all their lives, since they were cubs and Kevin has been with them all those years. (Hence the Lions consider him as family, no bullshit like, "this shit is special" This guy interacted with these lions daily ever since they were cubs.) Secondly, if these Lions were somehow to be released into the "Wild" as it were. These Lions would most likely not survive long, as their "instincts" as it were aren't used enough. (They are given food, they don't hunt) Their senses of smell, and eyesights etc. It's just that if they consider a human as part of their family they will, most certainly will not attack with malice and anger on purpose as long as you act appropriately in their eyes, as in act "lion-like". Now, YOU might be misinterpreting how Lions play with each other. When Lions play with each other, they don't hold back. They use the full force and weight of their entire body. Now...to other Lions, this kind of "forceful" playing is virtually harmless to them. BUT, to a human whom they consider part of their family it will be lethal, because they don't realize that humans are fragile. TL;DR: It wouldn't make sense if you didn't read it whole.

[@pabloavero3789]

BIG HEAD HAMMER No, I think your misunderstanding reality. The days of animals being unable to think and rely upon instincts alone are done. Man has now seen endless examples of animals and humans being together as one. They think, socialize, have structure and adaptation skills. Can learn on the fly and most of all seem to understand when humans try to help them. Like anything in this world you need understanding and trust for things to be successful. The mindless instinct days are now instinct themselves thanks to these people who show us it can be done.

[@survivorkitty3487]

Agreed...love and respect. Do you know the story of Christian the lion? There are a few renditions here on YT. I've watched them all. Watch the whole story. The ending makes me so happy, I cry. Be blessed Pablo. Peace...what a concept.

[@pfalky2k]

I love all animals. felines of any size & description are just my own personal favourites. no distinction between domesticated or wild. this guy is my very own personal "jesus". to know them THAT well. to be able to be taken as one of the Pride? I've honoured NO thing that isn't a cat as much as I honour this fella (& yes, I do consider cats worth WAY more than humans)

[@bigconan]

I pretty much agree with everything you said. I have said many times. the male lion is the closest thing to a god on his planet.

[@bigconan]

Humans are also the ones who have killed over 3 million whales in the last hundred years, they have pretty much hunted grizzly bears to extinction. humans kill animals for sport. Humans torture innocent animals. Most humans are scum bags...

[@leer.watson4673]

Honestly, why would someone watching this specific video click on the "I dislike this" (thumb-down) button? I'm looking for a legitimate answer. There has to be a reason and I'm dying to know. I'd even accept "I'm just being obnoxious and felt like being negative" as an answer. Was the video too long? Too short? Didn't like the music being played? Didn't like Kevin's commentary? Didn't like the quality of the video? Wasn't as good as other 6:48 videos showing a man side-by-side with Lions, while guiding a group of tourists? Didn't like the title or the summary? Didn't like how "REALLY" was in all caps in the title? What was it?

[@NebRetalsJr]

Crazy Comments THIS comment. Your crazy comment is why everyone hates this video.

[@heg_egg]

Because some people don’t approve of big cats or wild animals being treated like pets. These type of videos, although the guy is genuine, are often misinterpreted as an excuse to own a wild animal as a pet. I love this video, but I know the effect it has on people.

Interesting story: Lions don't normally attack and eat people, but two lionesses were doing just that in the 1800's. Why? They had toothaches and human meat is much more tender than their usual prey.

[@JSwanKilowJ]

nah don't end it, just take the guns away from them and make them fight with their bare hands and broadcast it live on social media. let's see how tough these "big game hunters" really are when it's a fair fight.

[@Texas240]

@@catudraws8497 - you should research it. Many "reserves" actually breed lions to supply canned hunts, even to the point that volunteers and employees are duped to think they're helping repopulate or supply zoos.
