7 Years After Rescuing Lioness, He Sees Her Again Watch What Happened Next

In the expansive African plains, one might typically envision a lion hidden in the tall grass, ready to launch into a swift, predatory sprint.

However, this story takes an unexpected, heartwarming turn, centered around Kevin Richardson, known as The Lion Whisperer.

Rather than a deadly encounter, we witness the unique bond between Kevin and a lioness named Meg, whom he rescued as a cub.

Meg, along with her sister Amy, was abandoned at a young age, but found safety in Kevin’s wildlife sanctuary located near Johannesburg.

This haven not only provided them refuge but also spared them from the tragic fate of being sold into the canned lion-hunting industry—a grim reality that claims many captive-bred lions in Africa.

Kevin Richardson’s sanctuary was founded with the mission to end the exploitation of lions in captivity and to combat the cruel practice of “canned” hunting, where lions are bred specifically to be hunted.

His commitment to these magnificent animals is deeply reflected in the sanctuary’s work.

In a powerful video tribute to Cecil, the world-famous lion who was senselessly killed in 2015, Kevin raises awareness about the global outrage over recreational big-game hunting.

His efforts underscore the importance of protecting Africa’s majestic wildlife and the need to change how lions and other creatures are treated, emphasizing conservation over cruelty.
