Lions Accept Man as Part of the Pride: Video

We told you about animal behaviorist Kevin Richardson and his African lions back in March. I was amazed by the extraordinary bond Kevin had formed with a lioness named Meg who swims with him on his wildlife preserve in South Africa.

I just came across this video on the Adventure Blog about Kevin and the work he’s doing at the preserve. It seems all the lions – not just Meg – have accepted him as one of their own. Watch how sweet and playful they are with him. (But don’t try this on your next African wildlife safari.)
