About

Though he grew up in suburban South Africa, these days wildlife conservationist Kevin Richardson spends most of his time in the country’s vast and mighty bush. Known as the Lion Whisperer, for him, nuzzling big cats is all in a day’s work. The Kevin Richardson Wildlife Sanctuary within Dinokeng Game Reserve in Gauteng is a safe place where large carnivores rescued from captive-breeding and cub-petting facilities can live out their days.
