    I’ve watched this video numerous times. Kevin is an incredible man with a love and passion for wildlife. Seeing Livy was sad. She was a naughty lioness much like Gabby, but beautiful. Vayetse, Mr. Big, has grown into a gorgeous lion. Thank you Kevin for all you do.

    I love this clip because you get to see the lions when they were young. Vayetsi is a gorgeous adult lion now, as are Liv and Ginny. They're wonderfully well behaved as evinced in another video of Kevin's Lion Whisperer Channel. Also, you can see how Kevin develops relationships with the lions...while they're young he works with them intensively to weed out problematic behaviors. Great stuff!

    Vayetse is one of my favorite lions. He lost his best friend and he mourned and mourned. Kevin got Livy and Ginny to keep Vayetse company. They are probably ten years old now. Vayetse has a gorgeous, full mane. Livy likes to stalk Kevin and jump on him. Ginny is interested in so many things and likes to investigate. Vayetse has the biggest paws I have ever seen. They are a great trio.

      +Little jON Minifro no he is not... in his many other videos he specifically addressed how that exact accusation about his philosophy is a mistake. He believes in sharing a family like friend relationship with lions. He wants the lion to know what he likes and what he doesn't like, but he is not their alpha because dominance means able to order, while Kevin do not order these lion whatsoever.
      You are right if you meant his relationship Hyena, but not with lions.

    You know... After spending that much time with those lions, in the case that one decided to attack him... I'm sure he could probably hold his own pretty well. He's a behavioral analyst, and something tells me that would be pretty valuable in being able to avoid deadly blows and bites long enough to at least get to safety.

      how is a behavioral analyst going to escape when a lion has him by the throat

      Ben Robey Thats the point he will be able to tell the warnings before they even happen and he'll back off thus avoiding the lion even doing that

    Kevin needs to teach them that they need to respect him. This is a very old video and now every single male and female lion love him. They all hug him and brush up against him just like our domestic cats do. They show their love every single time he goes into their enclosures.
