I love Duke sitting around the corner hiding. What a pretty kitty.
❤❤❤ Such lovely beasties!
❤
C’est Duke qui est timide ?
This week we see more of the Black Leopards and a little footage of some Lions as well ! Kahn is amazing to spend some time, so agile, so curious and he really keeps me on my toes. A struggle to keep up at times, when he goes....he goes ! This is the last of the Meet the Character series, some of the other animals do not enjoy sharing their space, so i respect this and leave them to enjoy life as they want it, at The Sanctuary. Thank you for all the support, if you are new to the channel, i think you will enjoy this, if you are a regular i am confident you will enjoy this ! Ciao !
brilliant
Omg, that look on Duke's face hiding around the corner 😄. Very cute! Love watching Kahn enjoying his walks. Such a cool dude. Thank you for sharing!
Can't ever get enough of Kevin and those beautiful cats...Thanks! Have a good weekend everyone❤
Thank you, Kevin, for Meet the Characters videos. It was soo cute to see Duke peeking around the corner, and great to see Khan on his enrichment full of energy and curiosity! What kind of quality time animal videos will you make next of your Sanctuary? I really love all your Sanctuary videos, meet the characters, enrichment walks, spending time with them in their enclosure, behind the scenes, etc. Have a great weekend, Love to ALL of you, from Alaska😍❤💖💓
Always such Beautiful enlightening videos Kevin 🙏 it's how I wake up now, every morning watching a new video - Khan is just such a handsome boy 😍 & poor Dukey (he is so funny) if only he would take that next step & go with his brother, maybe one day 🙏 His little face though, Always peeking around the corner like that...I'm sure Khan does go back & tell him "brother you just don't know what your missing on the walks with Dad" 😀 The shape of a Leopards head side on - its so Beautiful, I can't explain it, it's just so Powerful & Always makes me wish I could run my hands over it & then kiss the back of his head 🥰 Leopards (like all the Animals in your care) are such Magnificent Beings 👼🙏👼🙏👼
Duke is so funny playing “ no thanks Kev I’m fine here” 😂😂
I love that u don't force the animals to do something they're not comfortable doing.
The look on Duke’s face! Ha ha. Kahn showed us he is his usual stunning self. Loved how Suja and Bongani walked side by side. ❤️🇺🇸
Duke's expression is priceless 😅, a million words without a sound. Kevin, has Duke ever gone on any walks? You can sure tell Kahn really enjoys them! 💜🖤👣🐾
Kevin explains Duke's reluctance a bit in last week's video
@@embreis2257 yea I did see that but was just curious if Kevin was ever able to get Duke to go anytime before. I guess with what he explained, probably not. Poor little guy, lol those eyes.
Love seeing Kahn enjoying his walk with Kevin and Duke looks so cute peeking behind the wall. Always a delight to see Suja and Bongani. Thankyou for wonderful video. 🐾🐾🦁🥰
They're my favorites, even if the lions have bigger personalities! Have a good weekend, all!
It seems to me that the biggest tell-tale sign that a wild animal is happy where they live is that they voluntarily return to it. I like how you brought out that this cat will wonder around and when done, head back to the truck to go home. Obviously this is a very happy cat in the home that he lives in.
Duke is missing out on all the fun! Hope Kahn can convince him to brave a walk one day 😂❤
Always a pleasure to vicariously go on a walk with the cats and learn something new. Thank you for answering the question as to why Kahn doesn't take off and not come back. I never noticed before how incredibly long his tail is! He is a beauty! A day with the Leopards wouldn't be the complete without Pilchards at the end.
I agree! And the Pilchards look so yummy too😋
I agree! Such beautiful cats. Duke looked so sweet peeping around the corner 😅
I now have an image of Kahn going back to Duke and talking all about his amazing adventures and Duke just being like "Don't believe you, you're always exaggerating!"
😂😂😂
😂😂
Duke's too busy practicing his Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, to go for a walk. ☺️
I love the grace, the stealth, the “ballet” moves of the leopards. The magnificent length of tail, more than is minimally necessary, makes each leopard a ballet master and a tightrope walker at the same time. What pleasure to watch them!
Suja and Bongani are literally joined at the hip.😂 Duke😍
Kahn is on a mission.😂 Thanks Kevin.❤💋 Have a great weekend everybody!🐾❤🐾❤
This beautiful cat is majestic on his walks. Duke is cheeky but Khan is like 'yeah, let's do this'! All the sights, textures and smells are so stimulating.
Unbelievably beautiful cats.. you are the luckiest guy in the world Kevin
Kahn and your Black Leopards are mesmerizing and really beautiful. Needless to say all your animals are beautiful. Seeing how happy and ready Kahn is to go walking whilst Juke is like still lacking on trust with the vehicle. Seeing also your excitement and happiness to be with your animals is pleasing. Kevin Richardson we need more people like you in this world that truly care. Thank you and hope you and your animals have a great week ahead. Take care n stay safe. Kahns absolutely Beautiful.
@NALU41984 Thank you !
Oui je le pense aussi on a besoin de personne comme vous
That is some tail!! Thanks for the great walk - excellent enrichment for us too LOL! Glad to hear your Achilles has healed!
Bongani looks like he is feeling better. I’m glad you have more time with him. Thank you for walking with Khan. Don’t tell the other leopards but Khan is my fav. 😊❤
I have to admit that the tail of a leopard really fascinates me. It seems to have a life of its own❤❤❤. Loved the video. Duke is so precious. He just does not want to go😅. Seeing Bongi and Suja was also a bonus. Thank you❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful leopards ❤️🖐️
Seeing suja and bongani was a nice bonus. I love the black leopards. Khan is adorable. They both are but khan reminds of a happy house cat because he comes across as such a pet in his behaviour around Kevin.
Kahn is stunningly gorgeous, they all are gorgeous cats
Dang, Khans tail is as long as his body! Such a good buddy 🐈
Bongani and Suja were extra "bumpy" in todays video.
Kahn enjoying the view, 'Meerkat style', on the ride is so funny😂 (and sweet).
You're Achilles healing so quickly, just like a resilient lion.
Khan is all that is beautiful about African wildlife. A proper character. ❤
These Gorgeous Black Leopards Maybe Crazy But It Makes Enrichment Walk More Majestic 😮❤
How amazing to see your interactions with all the beautiful cats xx❤
So happy you have rehabbed so well Kevin! Loved seeing Bongani and Suja. They are holding up well. Kahn is just a very special cat! I love his personality. Standing up in the backseat wanting to know where he is going...lol...so cute. I noticed that when surveying his surroundings that he also looked up, knowing danger could come from above. I haven't seen other big cats do that. Duke is just adorable too....I like his sneak a peek ways...lol. Thank you so much for sharing these special cats with 7s! Hope Nikita and Kohl are doing well too! 💖🦁🐆
Kevin: Full of confidence!
My brain: more like Kahn-fidence 😜
Kevin you are amazing! Thank you so much for continued dedication to all the beautiful wildlife animals! It is very clear to see the compassion you have for them and just as clear to see they too share it with you as well ....demonstrated by their complete trust in you..... Kevin not just a "Lion Whisperer" ..... A true "Wild Animal Whisperer"! I'm in complete Awe every time I watch you interacting with each of the different species at the reserve and all the different personalities they each possess and you have won each and everyone of them over.... Pure Amazement thinking wow these are wild animals and they ALL accept you as one of their own in each of the individual family groups throughout the reserve.
Very well spoken. I love what you wrote. I couldn’t agree more with what you wrote. Bravo!❤🙌🏽
Lovely Leopards 🌷🍃♥️🐾🌿🌹🍀🌺
Loved to see how Suja and Bongani move around almost as one. Made me sad to think of how Suja will be affected if he is left without Bongani. Both Kahn and Duke are so predictable and beautiful. ..with Duke peeking out and Kahn confidently going on his walk!
ABSOLUTLY BEAUTIFUL !! Sleek and smooth coat Such a Wonderful Animal !! LOVE him !!! So Magestic !!
Gorgeous cats!!!
Beautiful black panthers 🥰 wonderful lions
Kahn is one beautiful black leopard and Duke is also beautiful. Love Black leopards ;-) 🐾🐾💗💗🌻
Kevin, So glad to see your Achilles Tendon has improved enough to allow you join Kahn in a walk. Duke cracks me up whenever he decides to avoid you. Thanks again for another wonderful video.
Love getting to see Khan and Duke!
I think Kahn enjoys walks with Kev almost as much as Meg ❤
Love these guys. Count me in as a major fan of Duke and Kahn. I'm looking forward to a video of Duke's (upcoming) enrichment walk.
The black leopards are so stunning. I love their beautiful faces and the tails are magnificent. It’s incredible to watch them move. They’re like lightning. Curious, how did you discover that Duke didn’t enjoy walking? It was great seeing Suja and Bongani. Hope Bongani is doing well. Do lions often kill leopards in the wild? I guess they don’t want competition for prey. I really enjoy the Meet the Character series and will miss it, but I understand the comfort of the animals comes first. Thank you Kevin for saving and protecting these precious animals and giving them a wonderful, safe, happy life. Your work is greatly appreciated. Much love and respect from Tennessee USA.
Who needs a gym when you have Khan! Love seeing the boys.
😍 Always a good morning with Duke and Khan.
A lovely walk with Khan. Hopefully Duke can come along aswell very soon. I always look forward to seeing them eating their pilchards 😸😸
what an amazing difference between Con and the lions enrichment walks. It could be easy to lose Con he blends in so easily. It's so rewarding for ME to witness their adventures when given the opportunity. Thank you Kevin for loving big cats as much as I. I am sure they are blessed for you and your abilities as I am for you providing me/us with the visuals of their adventures. Give Meg a scratch around the ear for me. ✌💜🙃🙏
His name is Khan. 😊
They're so beautiful and I loved hearing the deep, throaty sounds they made at the end of video. It reminds you of how powerful they really are. Thank you, Kevin, for sharing this with us.
The leopards need enrichment walks. They are cute!
🖤🖤🖤 My favourite cats! What a good boy. 🖤🖤🖤 On a mission too, as always.
Absolutely fantastic cat so beautiful
thank you for all that you do and sharing these marvels of nature with the world. I am going to Masai Mara next year in the hope of a photographic opportunity with a black leopard.
Best channel ever ❤❤❤❤
@freddiebeltran8174 - so good to hear this, thank you !
@LionWhispererTV OMG it's my dream to meet you!! I'm gonna do my best to come by and see you guys ASAP. I GOT IT!
Never ceases to amaze me! I look forward to these videos! Loved this one too! Thank you for this Kevin! Keep up the awesome work!!
Duke showed he wasn't interested in going for a walk outside the enclosure while he hid from Kevin on side of the night pen. His hiding made me laugh. 😆 🤣 😂 He surely was obvious. Kahn, on the other hand, was very enthusiastic to hop in the travel van. And he showed that he very much enjoyed his adventures exploring outside his camp. It was a very enjoyable and interesting video. Thanks Kevin!
They're fantastic: Kevin giving him the possibilitY to feel new sensations,to smell new perfumes,and Kahn so attentive and curious ❤❤❤
I just can not get enough of these videos.
So fascinating, and such a pleasure to watch.
2 VERY cool Cats... OK ... 3, including Kevin.
I love Leopards' different personalities 😊
Thanks Kevin and team for these bits. Your work is always appreciated. “THAT is a leopard that doesn’t want to go walking.” Love it
Kahn and Duke get more beautiful each time I see them! 💜💜 Thank you Kevin
You are the shepherd of the lions, and all your beautiful unique animals. Even the ones that aren’t as majestic as the lions, we still adore.
I love it that Kahn is so perceptive and loves to have his Kevin for a walk. He is so stunning and so confident and regal. ❤
It's crazy how he disappeared in the tall grass even with his dark coat.
The look on Duke's face at the beginning is just priceless! 😂And Khan is just so beautiful to watch - that tail is incredible, I never really noticed how long leopard tails are. And the rosettes - just stunning. Fun fact - as a kid, I also used to love those pilchards in tomato sauce 😂I feel I have kindred spirits there! (Love the outro music, by the way - it really gives such a good vibe to the ending of a great video and a reminder of the good things in life!)
Every single time i am amazed by the length of their tails.
3:30 so cute!!! ❤🐈⬛🐾❤
Duke is so cute playing hide and seek! and Khan - that tail! He is so graceful and majestic! And the best treat ever - PHILCHARDS!!!
That was brilliant Kevin, Duke and Khan are wonderful leopards 🐆.
Khan is so elegant when he moves, stunning
Great enrichment walk with Khan as usual and so nice to see you reward both Khan and Duke with a can of Pilchards too. I got just a little nervous when you followed Khan over that rocky bridge.
Dukes Impression while hiding is sooo cute lol Meeeeeps you can't See meeee nooo xD And Khan is such a beautiful Spirit too 😍
Love seeing "our" gorgeous senior boys Bongani and Suja (hope I spelled their names right???) even if only for a few moments!
And Duke!!!! The gorgeous yet big ole scaredy cat. It's funny and a bit sad too he's so frightened of the truck. Just want to hug him. We know you're working with him Kevin.
And gorgeous lovable adventuresome Kahn NEVER disappoints.
Awesomeness video as always! Thanx Kevin! 🐾♥️♥️♥️🐾
Stunning enrichment walk and video for us - devotees of KRF ❤😊 Khan's rosettes are beautiful and so lovely to see in the Sun.
Great your Achilles has healed Sir Kevin! ❤
Seeing the Lions also devoted to each other is heart touching ♥️ ❤ thanks again for my African hit! 🤗
I absolutely adore the black leopards
They are the most majestic creatures in my eyes :)
Thank you for an incredible video !
Fascinating to watch, I always try and put myself in the mind of the leopard as if I was a leopard and try to work out what he is thinking and what Is going on in his brain. Great video and thank you for all the fantastic work you do with these beautiful big cats :)
Dukes sad eyes looking, like please don’t make me go walking So adorable!!!🐈⬛♥️♥️♥️✌️
Kevin, you encounter so much wildlife at the sanctuary, but I haven't heard you mention snakes, lizards, or crocs. What reptiles have you encountered on the property? It would be pretty cool if you did a video about the reptiles you've seen while walking the cats.
I was in a bad mood and knew the black leopards would cheer me up!!
Oh I do enjoy Duke & Kahn ♥️♥️🤗
Thanks Kevin always amazing….
♥️♥️
Love watching Khan on walks 😀😀, thanks for sharing Kev. Lions and black leopards are my favorite big cats! Well, except for all the other ones too. Hello everyone!
for many many years now i've been so fascinated by the notion of black leopards in the kenyan aberdare mountains & ethiopian highlands.....i have notifications on for this channel anyway, but it'll be an especially joyful moment when your kenya trip debuts! 😻 🙏
They are all so incredibly beautiful. The leopards are so stunning and those regal lions are always a sight to behold❤
Thank you Mr Richardson for all of your hard work preserving these majestic babes!
So enjoyable, just to watch the joy and eagerness of this wonderful black leopard in the sunshine. I DO wish that Duke would go too - he would benefit so much by it. Bless them both - and you, Kevin.
Kahn and Duke are so adorable. I love learning more about them. It is amazing to see how different their personalities are. Again thank you Kev for an amazing video 💚
Beautiful animals
These walks allow you to keep in shape. I love watching Khan go out and explore nature. Duke is very touching. I'm sure you can make up your mind to go for a walk with Khan. They are splendid. Glad to see that Bongani and Suja are doing well. They are magnificent. Thank you for this wonderful and very interesting video as always. ❤🐾🐾🦁❤
Unbelievable! 😊
Fabulous footage! 😁
Thank you SO much for inviting me into your world. ❤
I love the black leopards. They are so beautiful but also im learning alot about their personalities too. Its so interesting to see the difference between all the different types of animals. i use d to think that nearly all big cats like lions and leopards and cheetahs were really all the same but nope, they are so different and i love these walking videos too.
Ahhh another fabulous enrichment walk ❤. Khan and Duke are so beautiful; and I love how different their personalities are. Very special cats indeed. Thank you Kevin 🙏✨♥️
Love ❤️ to see him with the beautiful animals he has there love for him
Be safe be well
Kevin
Khan sure enjoys his enrichment walk. Always lovely to see Khan enjoying himself exploring, sniffing , etc. Tough luck for scardy Duke for having missed out such a treat. Would love to see him go out sometime 😂❤
Awwwhh! Those leopards are soo cuuute! Thank you Kevin!❤
Thank you Kevin for a lovely time with your leopard. God bless you Kevin for your work.💕🙏
Awesome and beautiful 🍃😎 These big cats are so amazing, and Kev is so great with them.
That's sweet the way the 2 lions snuggled while walking.
3:33 Duke be like "PLEASE tell me you're not gonna make me get onto that metal monstrosity with wheels. My crazy bro should be enough!"
That's freedom. He will find his own way back to the truck. My favorite video is when one of the leopards having fun making a video. I would love to see that again.
Grumpy Cole didn't want to go! LOL
Getting your cardio in for the day hey Kevin lol
