my life among the big cats of Africa
Kevin Richardson is an animal custodian in South Africa. He is able to look directly into the eyes of some of the world's most dangerous animals. He is able to crouch down to their level, play with them sometimes, and even kiss them on the nose, all without being injured. As a self-taught animal behaviorist, Kevin has broken every safety rule known to humans. He uses love, understanding, and trust to bond with Napoleon and Tau, two male lions, and Meg, a lioness. He also has a lot to say about "lion farming" and hunting in South Africa today.
