A 20 year friendship and bond with a Lion must be an awesome experience!

it is hard to believe that Meg is 20 years old she looks so active, some of that must be due to the care you give her and all the Animals in your care. Thank You Kevin for all you do for them.

Meg looks so awesome for 20 years old. I bet there aren’t no 20 year old lionesses in the wild, that look as good as Meg. Meg still jumps around like a youngster. You took exceptional care of these lions

I am not embarrassed to say that Meg is the Lion that inspired me to laugh again back when I joined the channel initially. That Lion has so much majestic joy that she has a spread amongst the viewing audience more in number than I am sure the sanctuary knows. I am happy to wear her t shirt and happiest to have her canvas print. I have her and Icarus as screen savers too. Watching ask Meg for the first time was a pivotal moment of time for me, and it was after my birthday this year that I became joyful and more jovial with laughter. So thanks to God, and thanks to Meg.

Meg is a sweetheart. I often find myself smiling while watching these videos too.

They are indeed like an old married couple. Always a special video seeing Meg. Looked like Icarus waiting for his taxi to take him home. Thanks again.

Seeing Meg and Icarus made my day. Meg is very precious. I’m happy that they are together.

What Kevin does is undoubtedly the most commendable thing on this earth. Those lions love him with all their hearts !!!

That's an amazing achievement to get two old lions to live with each other, something that probably would never happen in the wild. It's a testament to Kevin's deep understanding of lions' nature.

I can't believe that it has been an entire year since Meg's arranged marriage got it's start. It is nice to see them both so peaceful together now.

Kevin…funny comment of yours! For Meg, you shall always be #1😊

Hello , I actually think that Meg and Icarus are doing fairly well considering how old they are and they’re independent ways. I love the lions talking back to you and always showing you acceptance and love for you. Thank you Kevin for sharing your lions and stories.

20 years together with Meg what a special relationship you 2 must have!

It's so FASCINATING to see those front feet move from the POV of the go-pro. From a side or longer distance away it's so smooth looking but then you get to those go-pro POVs and it's both jerky but there's this sense of POWER and PURPOSE to her strides. Also seeing those paws up close when Kevin gets headbutted by her just incredible. About the size of your face. Massive animals. And it's even more incredible to see your own little house cats behave in ways that are similar to these great cats.

I still think Meg and her back-cam would still make the best ad for GoPro, with the footage of her running and rolling around 😄 These two are just lovely. Poor Icarus doesn't seem to have made quite the impression he'd like yet.

"Matchmaker, matchmaker make me a match..." so happy to see them so comfortable with each other and they do look great! You mentioned she still flares her lip at him. Would be interesting to see the differences and similarities in how they communicate with you vs. how they do with each other. 🧡🦁🧡🤗

The two of them are amazing, as is the entire staff of the sanctuary. They thrive because of the care you give them. I love seeing these videos! God Bless, Kevin!

Meg showing her lip to Icarus is her just being a sassy pants 🥰 They are both very content with each other 💕

I love these two, they’re such characters. It’s good to see how they’re getting on, has it already been a year?! I love how Icaraus was waiting for her to join him at the fence but Meggie just decided to lounge by the car instead 😂

That was cute: Icarus was near Thor's pride, rubbing it in that he & Meg were on enrichment walk. Meg stretching her legs , showing that she's still very fit! When Meg walked into the tall grass, she blended right in, WOW!!! I bet lions hearing is much better then people, although maybe Meg wasn't actively hunting the birds? That was very sweet: Meg getting out of the truck to check on Icarus! 🥰🥰🥰

I can hardly believe it's been a year! I doubt there are many people in the world who have accomplished what you have with Meg and Icharius. It is so wonderful that they each have a friend in their golden years :)

On safari in Kenya, we stopped to watch 3 lionesses hunting a warthog by the dirt track in similar grasslands. I was the one to spot the cluster of adolescents. They were very close to the road and to us! They do blend perfectly. As their coats are not one colour, but a mix of the palette of the colours of dried grasslands.

Have been looking forward to such a video for a while…Yes, Meg is definitely spoiled! All of your furry family is. But they truly deserve it. ❤️Counting the days ‘til our visit in September to meet them all❤️🙏🏻🐾😻🐾🦁

Icarus may be a welcome lion friend, but no one, whether human or lion, will ever take your place in Meg's mind. You, my friend, are her pride.
