LionWhispererTV aim is to raise awareness about The Kevin Richardson Wildlife Sanctuary.
The fact that she looks much younger than she is, is largely due to the care you provide for them Kevin! Again, extremely happy to be a member 🦁❤️
Thanks for being a member Kim! 😊
Meg is so beautiful... " she doesn't look 18... she looks 5 or 6..." Kevin you know how to flatter a lady... one of many reasons she loves and respects you...
Whenever I watch a human interaction with a lion, I’m always on edge waiting for something to go wrong. That’s why I find Meg so incredible because she’s the first lion I have seen who genuinely seems soft and safe to be around (safe for the lion whisperer,anyway!). You can see the love she has for him in her eyes.
Yes, lol, only safe for Kevin, as his ways with the lions cause them to see him as a member of their pride.
Get out of here, she's a female and like females of all species once you step out of line they'll tear you apart and it doesn't matter how much they pretend to love you
@@gabe-po9yithanks captain obvious
Correction294, Her and Bobcat are the two lions in Kevin's sanctuary that Kevin seem to have the deepest bond with
And actually it was said in this video that besides Meg that Bobcat was the only other lion in the sanctuary that let Kevin put a go pro camera on their back
It is for that exact reason why Bobcat and Meg are on the top of my list for fondness of the lion's in Kevin's sanctuary even though he has other good one's in his care as well, Too
Meg is my favourite lioness! I love how she looks at Kevin and how cheeky she is, stalking and pouncing on him like cubs do.
Meg is such a beauty. She has stolen my heart 💜
She's a big playful baby❣️ I love Meg
Watch some older videos.
So what..? So that!😄
I'd marry her tomorrow.
@@gerryhouska2859 and she’d tear your heart out in 1.5 nanoseconds, literally 🤣🤣... congrats on the marriage ???
You can tell she loves you Kev! What an honour to be loved like this!
Completely! 💛
@Daniel Hostetler It is 💕 I could tell you a story but it would take ages. I know what I see!
Do you ever play music for the lions ? " cat music " can have varying effects on domestic cats though 😊
@Daniel Hostetler It's the most love that a lion is capable of expressing. If it isn't trying to kill you, then you're in the ballpark. If it wants to be near you, then you're a part of the pride and they'd kill to protect you. Risking your safety for others for no other gain is the only true sign of love and friendship.
Even so, lions will damn near kill pride members when they're all competing to eat on a carcass. It's like a switch. After feeding, everything's OK again.
Until she eats him
It’s almost like you can’t even talk about Meg without Amy. Such beautiful lionesses and what a beautiful relationship 🥰
I don’t think Meg could have found anyone who loves her as much as Kev. When they were in the water together, it was like watching a daughter trust in her dad to not let go, and that’s so beautiful.
Just the way my cat snickers lays against me! And looks at me! Shes my bestie! I love this. Guy!
Meg seriously learn kevin physical in and out to reciprocate kevin compassion that truly share her same fate with the right spirit
Meg is such a beauty. Just love seeing Kev with Meggie
Whenever Kevin says Meg's getting old she takes it upon herself to start running and jumping 🤣. I swear she understands every human word!
Omg you are sooo spot on there... These videos💚 make my week xx
“Speak for yourself kev” zooooom
I've just come from a BilliSpeaks video and as I clicked on this I jokingly thought to myself 'What if Meg was given buttons to talk to Kevin with?' And yours was the first comment I saw.
You guys really live in some fantasy land
@@GabGotti3 If you claimed there's a dude in South Africa who cuddles lions every day some people would say that you were the one living in fantasy land.
It's a joke but animals can and do learn our language. Highly doubt Meg has any concept of what the word 'old'' means though
WE LOVE YOU MEG!!!🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡....and you too, Kevin! Thank you for your passion!
It’s almost like Meg knew not only what you were doing for her an Amy. But kinda like she knew what Kevin’s plans were for her and Amy being ambassadors for lions. That’s why she let him put the go pro on her as well as all the other adventures they went on. Thanks kev for giving them a life they almost didn’t have abs giving them the love they needed.
Hear hear.
Meg is such a star she deserves her own documentary! She looks amazing and has so much pep in her step for being 18 years old! Thanks for sharing the the lions with all of us its a pleasure getting to know all of them!
She is one impressive lioness! Thank you, it's an absolute pleasure! 🙏
@@LionWhispererTV
Part of what makes Meg and makes Meg special is the life you have given her and Aimee;
we all thank you for that.
I realize it's not part of 'the plan',
but she does seem to miss Aimee
and I suspect she'd be a great mom.
At this time, there are probably a good few 'sanctuaries' and zoos looking to find homes for cubs.
@@mlsarchitect
Its Amy..💜
Why did you say that "there are probably a good few 'sanctuaries' & zoos looking to find homes for cubs"??? Firstly, zoos & sanctuaries *have* cubs & they keep them if/when they're born. Unfortunately, that's literally a big part of what they do & some would say that's a big reason why they exist. This should be common knowledge. ?
So, about your comment.. 1) Meg might look wonderful & on certain days be quite active & playful, but she IS 18. She is def most likely too old to be bearing any cubs (or taking care of them).
Your comment sounded like you think Kevin should take in a cub & then give it to Meg to raise bc she's lonely. It just doesn't work that way, & there are *many* reasons why.
I really don't intend to come off as rude.. there are just so many problems with your comment. You need to research. Like, a LOT.
2) Kevin's sanctuary will not bring in cubs from somewhere & give them to a lioness. There are also many reasons as to why *this* would not work either.
& there's absolutely *no way* that Kevin would ever allow the animals at his sanctuary to breed.. If you didn't know that or don't understand why, then you should definitely do some research. Based off of your comment, you have quite a bit of researching to do. Just a friendly tip. :)
@@mlsarchitect Umm, yes it would be nice if she would accept company, but a) females raised away from a pride often have no mom skills, that's how this story started 18 years ago ...
b) KRF has said 'enough' w captive lion raising, new cubs would mean another 25 yr committment 😹
I wonder what happened to M's crush on Lion across the alley ?
@@MiZzBee1
Whoever you are,
I thank you for your great concern about my lack of education.
Perhaps you can spare some for the zoos and 'sanctuaries' who are lacking visitor income in these days of covid.
I'm sure your concern would go a long way in providing for those they feed so selflessly.
Maybe you can give me some references for further research?
(No QAnon stuff please)
Thanks.💕🤷♂️💋
- Dear dislikers . . . Meg doesn't care - 😹
The dislikes are from the porcupines.
- @@deathbycheese850 - Best reply I've read to a comment today - 😹
@@deathbycheese850 that is gold. Well done 👍
@@deathbycheese850 this reply is the best. Its great. Really made me laugh.
@@deathbycheese850 that made me laugh thank you! :)
That swimming portion was AMAZING! The trust she has in you...wow! She only did it because she knew you’d “catch” her. What a lioness.... 💞🦁
18 years with this beautiful girl, what a privilege, hope she’s got more healthy happy years ahead of her, 💕💕🇬🇧
i love beautiful Meg
this relationship is so beautiful!! Meg really is THE one and only
I can't help but chuckle when I look at this picture of Kevin and Meg, it's as if she's saying " smile big like this Kevin " lol
Love it! Lolol
Kevin is her Mummy and Daddy. So precious!! ❤🦁❤
You can feel the emotion in Kevin's voice when he is with Meg. There long association has made them such great companions.
She’s Breaking My Heart, I’m sure she’s lonely, missing her sister Amy, Seems silly but she has me crying for her..
I wonder if that's why she's not as interested in walking now. Its more exciting when you have company.
I was thinking the same thing. I was wondering if she was depressed and missing her sister Amy. I still feel so sad that she passed away and Meggie is left alone.
Thank you Kev for this video. I could literally watch your channel all day long. Mega may be 18 but shes still getting on. Love the shot of her with the porcupine lol! Thanks for sharing. I look forward to seeing more vids in the future. Hugs Kevin, your so awesome!
Omg me too I cried through the whole
Video 😭❤️
Same here.
Every time you tell the story about Meg and Amy and how you became part of their lives my eyes get watery. Watching Meg swim up to you in the water and put her paws on your shoulders is the most precious video. Shes like a young child in a pool learning to swim with her Father trusting him with her life. It’s my favorite scene.
If Kevin hadn't rescued these tiny Lion cubs they would have drowned. They ĺove Kevin like their parent. It is such a incredibly scene where Megj jumped in the Dam, placed her paws on his shoulders....such a wonderful ❤ 💖 ♥ trust in Kevin.
I love Meg so much. Her and Gabby are favorite lionesses. Amy was too. I miss her a bunch.
Seeing Meg jump towards Kev in the water made me cry, she trust you with her life Kev. Loved learning more about Meg❤️, I just adore her.
Thank you Kevin for sharing this beautiful girl - she's very special to us all.
You're welcome Cathy! 😊
I remember an episode where you said Amy and Meg were sold off to a lion farm and in the sea of lions you called their names and they came running to you. Very heart felt story!
This sounds familiar to me......?
Love that story. They both came running! Just love it and Meg. ❤ The way Kevin loves her. ❤
Yes, I remember it, too.I miss this video.😥
What episode was that ?
Yes, Kevin had gone on vacation and the owner of the Lion Park sold Meg and Amy while he was gone. That was the when Kevin started learning about lion farms.
Again and again I watch Meg videos and I just can't get enough! ❤what a beauty. A true Queen.
I just love Kevin's relationship with Meg. His knowledge and consistent care is magnificent. Thank you, Kevin, for giving us such beautiful content.
THE ONE AND ONLY Meg is the primo lioness of the sanctuary. Kev is her pride and seems to fulfill that need for companionship that Meg has. Of course I miss Amy but I’m positive Kevin and Meg miss her terribly. Hearing Meg is 18 and her energy is down makes my heart ache a bit. Meg not wanting to walk saddens me quite a bit. It was good to see her leave the vehicle and go roam. I could listen to Kevin talk about beautiful Meg, hearing the love in his voice, all day. Thank you Kevin tell Meg I love her so much.
Meg is so beautiful. She steals my heart everytime I see her 🥺🥰❤️
"Let's go find something, my sweetie." So cute.
Always love to see Ms Meg. I still have a hard time seeing Meg without Amy. Meg doesn't look her age at all, thanks to all the loving care you give her and all the animals at the sanctuary. Very nice visit with you and Meg and the trip down memory lane. Give this girl a hug and kiss for me all the way from Canada
Meg is doing very well for a cat in their senior years. RIP Amy.
Sweet Meg ❤ I see her on my coffee cup every morning.
Meg and Amy will always be my favorite lionesses. They have such beautiful hearts and souls. When i first heard of Amy passing , my heart hurt! I don’t know these cats, yet thats the impression they left on me.
Meg is a gorgeous girl. I sobbed when Amy passed away. I listened to your book last year one day when I had a full day of chores and I found myself standing still chores abandoned waiting on pins and needles listening to the part when you had to go and get Meg and Amy back...how they knew their names...oh my heart ❤️ She is the one and only Meg.
Im unwell today but ive set my alarm at 2am for old Meggy. Im sure she'll make me feel better.
Dedication - get better soon!
Feel better 💜
@@suzannebaxter5629 Meg helps to forget my ailments.😀
Lions are good for the soul. Hope you feel better soon.
Get well soon! Meg is the chicken soup for the soul.
1:40 "you know old grannies..."
Meg's face : old grannies? The nerve!
These lion's are lucky to have you, protecting them, looking after them. Meg is a true star.
yeah Baby
Look at the size of her paws! She's huge, beautiful and pure. An asset to the world. Lions can teach us so much , if we care to know...
How can one person dislike something that hadn’t even started yet.
Ignorants ? 😎🇱🇺👍
These are not actual persons who dislike this video. They are bots 😂
Because the internet is full of depressive and awful people.
I think they do it to get a rise out of ppl. Don't give them the satisfaction.
There are trolls everywhere. Ignore them.
She really is a special lion. Shes gorgeous and definately one of a kind
Indeed she is Heidi!
Hyy
@@LionWhispererTV jhrt
Thanks Kevin for this heartwarming video. Meg is still such a beautiful lioness even at 18 and her affection towards you just brings me so much joy watching the way she is with you. And seeing Amy. I miss Amy, she was such a lovely lioness. ❤️
Wonderful to hear you enjoyed it so much, thank you! 😊
She was
Besides hand raising them basically from birth, I believe another reason those two beautiful lady lions love and trust you is when that time they were taken from you (while you were away) and you had to fight and fight to get them back from that breeding facility, I don't think that they ever forgotten how "papa" came to their rescue. I can't imagine how confused and afraid they must have been in that place. Your girls needed to be rescued and you rescued them and I'm sure they never ever forgot.
Cannot wait to see this video! The relationship between Kevin and Meg just melts my heart ❤️
It is truly remarkable
Isn't it great to get a personal message from The Lion Whisperer??
@@yvonaamariaa yes it is!
Never get tired of seeing meg even after a thousand times!
I've watched this many times and as always am soo taken by their story and the beautiful relationship you've made with Meg, and Amy as she rests in peace ❤❤❤...
What a leap of faith Meg took, when they were in the water! I still get chills down my spine in a good way, when I see this footage. 💕🐾
So cute. To see her shoulders going up and down as she walks. She's breathtaking. Absolutely love her.
Kev: She's honed in to something!
Meg: Let's make Kev think I'm tracking something. I'm really tracking HIM!
Such a lovely lioness. Take care!
Amazing that you had to literally fish Meg and Amy out of a tub of water when they were a day old! Bless you for being there for them and for being an amazing father/pride member. 😊❤
I always loved to see Meg and Amy. We miss Amy so much but it is amazing to see Meg doing so well. The love between Kevin and Meg is so obvious.❤️
Meg is probably my favourite lion in your sanctuary. You have such a wonderful animal Kevin!
Life lesson from Meg and Kevin: Loyalty, love and gratitude go both ways. Happy Friday everyone....stay safe. ❤️
Purrrfectly put!👌
Meg adores Kevin and visa versa
She and Kevin grieved Amy's death together, and are now living life together. They are a loving pair. Doesn't get better than that!
She is AMAZING and so BEAUTIFUL.
I feel so blessed to have access to content like this. Love to see Meg full of energy at her age! Thank you so much for letting us take a look into this side of animals most people dont get to see. Really appreciate your work Kevin!
Kind of you to say so! 👍
@@LionWhispererTV Love watching Kev and Meggie..! My heroes! ❤🦁❤🐾🐾🦁❤
Can't wait to learn more about these two beautiful and precious Queens 😍. We miss you Amy.
It was a wonderful sight when she jumped into the water. So much trust. It brings me in a very good mood to watch the videos and I am very happy that I can support your work with my donations. Greetings from Germany and stay safe
Much appreciated Kai! 🙏
Her Majesty is so graceful and gorgeous
She is an incredible Beauty. And She definatly doesnt act like 18 years of age ❤️
I would honestly love if Kevin spent some time bonding, quietly with Meg and narrate his voice over, after, in his studio.
Gabby the tyre wrecker... LOL
I would like that too, and for sure Meg too. It's hard to really bond if you're always walking around with a camera and talk
Meg's bond with you is one of the great joys of this channel.
heaven on earth
Had to come back again see my GURLY🦁🦁🦁😍😍😍😍😍Meggggyyyyyyy
Meg looks so good, she a lot of people happy 😊 I hope she stays happy all her life
Such a beautiful stress free life i love it. My mother is battling ALS its really hard for my family. Watching these videos makes our days better
May she get better soon 🙏
Love how playful and cheeky Meg is. You have an amazing relationship.
Meg is the most magical lion in the world
Absolutely gorgeous Meggie!! Love her and miss Amy! 🦁❤️
Meg and Amy stole my heart years ago. Always lovely to see new videos of her.
Take care Kevin & crew, you're all fantastic!
Your connection to this beautiful lion is just amazing 👍😍 you can tell how much she loves you and thinks of you as one of her own
My favorite has to be, Meggie!! The love you two have for each other just melts my ❤️. It's simply AMAZING!! But of course, there's Bobcat and Gabby!!
Princess Meg 💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕
She's so beautiful
The bond between Kev & Meg, could melt an iceberg. RIP Amy! You'll see her again! 💛
So funny to see Kevin in cage and Meg outside! Meg loves her Dad so heartwarming 🥰😍
I can’t get over her age. She’s still feisty. What a beautiful girl
Aw Meggy ♥️ so happy they were raised by such a wonderful human. It makes me miss Amy too but I’m thankful that Meg is still here and well
Favorite part of video: Learning her age and story. When she first arrived to "the walk", and she laid down by the truck, I wondered if she was nervous walking alone (without Amy), perhaps feeling vulnerable. I'm also amazed how alike she is to domestic cats: the rubbing, the chasing, the wanting to go home to sleep, and her seeming affection for you. I love Meg. I also loved Amy.
When she was just lounging and rubbing her head up against Kev, it’s just beautiful. ❤️
I just love Meg to pieces. ❤️❤️❤️
That feeling when you finish work (from home) early so that you can be in time to watch the latest Meggie video 😍😄
Loved this - the sight of Meg jumping into Kevin's arms in the water!!
The thumbnail was so adorable. My heart's melted because of this bonding between man and lions. Very rarely to seen like this immesurable relationship.
Waiting patiently. It’s the highlight of my day anytime there’s a new video, especially with Meg and Kevin. I just wish Amy was still with them. Kevin is one of the most beautiful people I’ve ever seen. That kind of dedication and genuine love he shows to these amazing animals is extraordinary.
You sir are an exceptional soul is more than we deserve.
Her beauty and health (along with all the cats) is a testament to you.
She has so much love and trust. She is so special ❤ what a beautiful life she has as an elderly lion. Others would have her put down.
Meg I swear is a human in a lions body.
Beautiful video ❤❤
Meg is amazing 😻. I love all the lions but really enjoy the episodes with Meg. I miss Amy.
Watching you and Meg interact together is for sure a sweet treat for us all! Thanks, Kevin! 💕🙏😊
Can`t wait, Meggie is close to my heart :) Going to
be emotional remembering Amy, love them both so much :))
I have a cat that just turned 20yrs old at the beginning of January. He has to contemplate a few minutes before jumping from one piece of furniture to the next too.
Meg misses Amy. I'm sorry for her loss and yours. I can tell your missing Amy too. It doesn't feel like it's already been a year. On a lighter note, it sure was fun running with Meg and watching her tackle you.😁 Thanks Kevin and your girly Meg. Love y'all!😽💓🐾💓
What a wonderful journey you have with Meg. Marvelous indeed!!!!
Meg and Amy will always have a piece of my heart. Such a beautiful relationship with Kev. We are all richer and grateful for that.
Meg is a one of a kind lioness. Hope she knows that many people around the world love her ❤️
Meg has always been my favourite - she is super sweet - I remember some years back watching that swim in the dam - and her big paws around your neck trusting you - that big brave leap of faith x
How many words does Meg know now? She definitely knows come and tired, porcupine and love. She is a beautiful and amazing lioness. I would love to see a video with current Meg and sliced in baby Meg references. You and your families lifetime dedication to your animals deserves mentioning. Thank you for all you are doing to bring awareness to the world. ❤️🙏
I love Meg with all my heart! She's a wonderful lioness. She's very sweet & affectionate! She's a one-of-a-kind!💕🦁💕🤗
My girlie, Meggie!! ❤❤ waiting...patiently!! 👑🦁
She's incredible , you three were very fortunate to share time together.
She's truly a sweetheart. ♥️
