It was wonderful to see these two beautiful lions out running around on a rainy day. I can't imagine how hot they get with those big, fluffy manes. So, when it's cool & rainy the lions seem to really perk up! I love to see Georgie keeping up with Yame: he's such a trooper! And they both gave me quite a laugh with their antics!😄

It's like going back to childhood when we had fun in the mud except that our parents didn't laugh all the time 😂 We have to stay young in our hearts this is the lesson given to us by our favorite lions today!🥰

The proof of your successful approach is in the state of the lions sense of choice and freedom in how they move and behave. They know you genuinely want to help them. They are accepting your reasonable control in order to feel free as often as you can do it. Bravo Kevin !

Its amazing how soft tempered and chill they are,even with empty bellies with kevin by their side.just shows how much effort and love he puts in raising all animals.everytime hes out on a walk they see him as part of the pride and are always affectionate to him.

People who think animals don't have emotion, who could look at this video and not see their pure joy in running and playing.

George and Yame are such great lions! They are absolutely gorgeous, in their prime, and are very sweet, personable lions. Both have had their issues. George, because of improper nutrition when he was little, has had serious ailments but you'd never know by his temperament or his willingness to try everything his brother does! And Yame had a chemical imbalance a couple of years ago that required medication. However, he's been weaned off the meds and he's back to his sweet, loving self. Amazing lions! And the poster boys for lion conservation: every single lion matters. Bless you, Kevin and The Lion Whisperer Team, for all of your hard work, dedication and love for all of the animals in your care. Thank you for these videos that bring the messages and issues of conservation to us. You'll never know how many hearts have been touched and minds have been inspired to join the conservation efforts by your videos. I am certainly one of them! 💕🦁💕
