You don’t realize how big they are when he has his GoPro.
i knoww
Yes..and the lionesses too
Linderella DogMum So true. Meggie and Amy are HUGE. Kevin raised them from one day old because their mom, Tabby, rejected him.
True but to see these are just so amazing
Hell, you aren't lying. I didn't even know that was Kevin by looking at the thumbnail of the massive lions and the small man.
RIP Amy... You will be missed by lots of people...
This guy is so much more of a man than any trophy hunter attempts to be.
I could not agree more!
A truly remarkable man, he might become the next David Attenborough.
Most beautiful comment, thanks for putting it this clearly❤️❤️🙌
Trophy hunters are as far away as being "men" as you can be. They are heartless cowards who only care about their own selfish interests. What Kevin does takes real courage, hard work, sacrifice, dedication and compassion, which is what a true man is all about. Trophy hunters think only about themselves and crave attention and significance. They are the lowest form of human being on the planet. And, in fact, psychologists see a connection between trophy hunters and serial killers. They care both cut from the same clothe.The planet would be much better without either of them.
Yes he is a real man they understand and respect all living things
RIP Amy. Meg & Amy, beautiful sister lionesses, raised by Kevin since they were 2 days old. Amy died this month of leukemia. Both Meg & Amy had beautiful, loving personalities, the best lionesses ever!💕🦁🦁💕 Wonderful to see this old clip of Meg & Amy & Kevin, in the rain, talking to guests at the sanctuary.
*If you kill me, there's no more swims in the river* LOL
OMG I never realized just how massively big Meg and Amy are. You really see it in this video. They are huge girls. More to love.
What a gorgeous man. Beautiful inside and out.

Fucking man
Yes 😂
I never fully realized how big Meg and Amy are.
Imagine if he had show Bobcat there with those 2 girls?
big enough to have you as an appetizer before lunch.
I know right
Mad Chaos
I would say between 180 and 200 kg.
I'd love to know their real weight.
🙏🏿❤🙏🏿
Kevin is my favorite human. No one will ever know Lions like he does. I'm so thankful to be alive at a time when I can experience them through him like this.
Lmao 😂😂😂😂
From this camera you actually get to see how big Meg & Ami are..I wonder how big bobcat and vayeste would look on this.
In one of his videos Kevin said Bobcat weights around 185kg, which is the same as Meg and Amy (they're 180kg each as per Kevin's information). And Vayetsi weights around 210kg and is one of Kevin's bigger lions.
Meg and Amy are probably close to 150kgs which is a good size for a female
thx, for the weights
Luffy SkyWalker actually Bobcat weighs more than 200kg, that what I heard from the Lion Whisperer. Male lions can weigh up to 250 Kg.
kevin is really short though.. maybe it makes them look bigger
Meg and Ami are my favorites amongst his pride, they're just beautiful.
Me too. These two are such sweeties 😗
But I still miss Thor 😢
Love his vids. Soo addictive. They are soo beautiful 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
It's the first time I saw Meg's lashes. Oh myyy they're beautiful!
Therese Rose and here I have to pay for my lashes 🤣🤣🤣

Wow when Kevin talked about the number of Lions left in the wild it broke my heart! That's almost 70% less than it was a little over a decade ago! These beautiful and majestic creatures should never get so low in numbers that the only way you can see them is in enclosures like this or a zoo! God bless Kevin Richardson for educating us and bringing awareness about the reality of these amazing animals!! They are just so beautiful to look at!!
***** I know I totally agree! I will do whatever I can to help with this extremely important cause.
Yes, friend, you spoke ALL IN ONE !! and out of my heart. Some things I can't really write perfectly, cause I'm a German, but always I understand everything. We all are so happy to got to know Kevin, it's also spending our time more sense fully (senseful?), by seeing all that lovely stuff of videos. I can't explain how much good I feel about it. 💞👍 RESPECT for all of them!!
This is one of the curses of mankind, we kill wildlife for sport or because it interferes with our plans. But I think the real reason we kill all the wildlife is because we aren't supposed to kill each other. Mankind is a warring species, if we aren't killing we want to see the killing.
I think even those of us who are not big animal lovers, still have a lot to learn from Kevin and other people like him.
Yeah you're right. Siegfried n Roy taught me a lot. They're wild animals n they will always be.
I swear Kevin was born with so many god-given gifts, and strong back must be one of them.
Because if 300lb and 450lb lions were jumping on me, my back would go out so fast....
You can see in this video she's putting most of her weight on her hindquarters though, which I found quite adorable heheh but yeah he can take a pounding xD
sean im i heard he does weight training. Dead lifting and squatting regularly. He can take it. But he did have back pain for a while. I think it's far gone now.
He has had those two (Meg & Amy) since they were tiny cubs. They used to ride on his back, which wasn't a problem when they were tiny 15 pound cats.. when they still wanted to do it after getting to 200 pounds+.. then it became an issue, hehe
Agree with you 👍
sean im yes, but he does mention that they are very gentle with him
6:07 this lionesses have beautiful eyelashes 😳
Meg and Amy do not like the lady reporter flirting with their daddy
And Kevin, being intuitive and classy as he is, just casually drops a factoid about his wife as soon as he's done with the presentation.
Curtis Hammer my
OMG! These beautiful gals have gotten HUMONGOUS!
Sure there are people wealthier then him, but I always feel like he must be the most envied person in the world. Who wouldn't want to enjoy the amazing experience of being friends with these incredibly strong and fierce animals? His dedication and love paid off. Kevin is a true legend.
So beautiful they are.
Kevin is so good with them.

The relationship Kevin has with these creatures is simply magic
Kevin is so handsome 😍 and such a beautiful human and not just his appearance he is just amazing 🌟💓
...and..you are stunning
@CLOUT you must hate yourself
He's fuckin stupid.. Siegfried n Roy didn't teach him anything. He'll learn
Oh Meg and Ami are huge I've never thought they've grown so big. This video helped seen that. 😍
Elena Rotestan lions can weigh from 300-600 lbs
Amazing!!!
KEVIN is the Man. Great work. I have great respect for you.
Steve Irwin would be proud of Kevin 😊
If you're like me and have been keeping up with Kevin Richardson over the years, you realize that you've literally grown up with Meg and Amy and the rest. I love watching the lions and his hyenas and I can't say enough about the work Kevin does. The man is truly remarkable. But I also know it's gonna be gut wrenching when one of them passes on someday.
This wa an amazing video! Looking at it, however, made me cry for the loss of Amy, who with her sister, was so very amazing. Kevin proved that as well as the knowledge of the cats, what a lot of love can do. I respect and admire Kevin so very much for everything he does with all the creatures in his sanctuary! 😍😍😍❤❤❤
I will miss you Amy, precious precious girl....I will see you again SOON when we ALL GO HOME ❣️❣️🙏🏻🙏🏻. I KNOW YOU ARE WITH OUR LORD & SAVIOR❣️🙏🏻🎺⛅️
Beautiful and intelligent animals, lions should never become extinct, the fact that their numbers have decreased so rapidly in such a short time saddens me.
Kevin raised Meg and Ami from when they were newborn cubs. Their mother, Tabby, rejected them. Tabby's sister, MadiTau, had a litter of cubs so Kevin put Meg and Ami in Maditau's litter. Maditau took them one at a time and put them in the drinking water. Kevin said he had to rescue these "drowned rats" and hand raise them. They think Kevin is their mother! They are now about sixteen years old. Kevin adores Meg and Ami and they adore him. I like this video because you can see just how big the girls really are. It was really interesting to hear Kevin talk about the girls and lions in general. I never realized how big they were until I saw this video. 🦁💖🦁💖🦁
sharon curry how is that well known? This isn’t Kevin’s channel, many outside viewers don’t know this info.
The girls are gorgeous! Kevin’s devotion and passion is to be admired and respected. He is truly a “one of a kind” and I am so grateful he is looking out for his lion family. (from USA)
Kevin Richardson is one of the most fascinating people on this planet. His bond with Lions and Hyenas are truly a God given gift. These huge lions act like kittens with Kevin. Simply incredible.
2020: Miss you Amy!❤️❤️ Their eyes are so beautiful. 🇺🇸
Kevin is like a "shepherd" of lions.. shows so much love, compassion, understanding and respect for them and their natural instincts.. gives them freedom to be themselves, yet makes sure they are so well taken care of. Keep up the good work Kev! 👍🦁
people such as him are true saviors, so that greed can hopefully never eliminate anyone's ability to see a animal this beautiful that God has created - i wish him and people like him blessings each day of their lives -
What a special gift to be able to interact with these beautiful lioness! I would love to have that experience!!!
I absolutely adore Kevin’s relationship with these big cats.. what an honour to be accepted as part of their clan..
Kevin, thanks for helping to allow us to watch and help through donations! Please support the cause by becoming a member.
Kevin is an incredible human being.
He’s very genuine with his big cats. He leaves them in there natural habitat as if they’re in the wild. Some people put their big cats in their very own backyard... so all of the work Kevin Richardson does for his kitties, he deserves a medal.
God has given this man grace to be able to do what he does. He LOVES these lions nd treats them with respect. 💓
They're lions. Who wouldn't respect them??? He keeps them in captivity n gets praise for it. A shame
@@Crazynice34 Are you dumb? They were both abandoned by their parents and they wouldn't survive , if anything he rescued them.
@@Crazynice34 not like he's already explained wild lions numbers dwindling + being poached to extinction; he runs a sanctuary after all
Kevin is a special man.
wow the biggest lionesess i have ever seen
Meteorite's sound
They're big, but Kevin is a small man, so in comparison he makes them seem larger than they actually are.
They look very big for lionesses indeed!
Apparently biggest lion subspecies
clara
Yeah, these are South African lionesses. Southern African lions especially in Kruger or Namibia are the biggest on average and on record. East African lions from the Serengeti plains of Kenya and Tanzania are a close second.
Meteorite's sound They are in magnificent condition thanks to Kevin, hence their massive stature, even by South African lioness standards. He keeps them big and strong!
A sweet yet painful sight seeing all 3 of them together again. I've been watching Kevin's videos since they first came out so many years ago and the amount of respect and admiration I have for Kevin is massive. That being said, I am ashamed to say that I have yet to bring myself to watch the episode just after Amy's passing away, where Kevin discusses it at length. And there are reasons for this beyond it simply being a very emotional episode to watch. Having myself recently lost my little girl chihuahua, who I had for 19 years, since she was a puppy, dealing with death on that level has become extra difficult. One day I will bring myself to watch that video.....eventually.
The lioness are sure big and living a good and happy life with Kevin with lots of respect and love for each other as well as Kevin. Amy is missed😍
I think they show more love then a lot of humans do. Especially to Kevin they can't seem to get enough. I'm sure like soldiers who see friends die the Lions do also and they put it behind them and push on.
Paul Avery
Lions are loyal and they don't know betrayal...
lions know loyalty as long as you feed & fatten them, if not you become their next morsel, not meal.
Children and family do not eat us when hungry but lovingly ask for food and hug, kiss, play with us & return our love, patience, kindness, with us when we age provided we don’t throw them out @ 16, in our old age drive us everywhere we need to be or go, walk with us patiently........if you did the same to them when they were young & innocenf instead of you partying like an animal, busy with money making & merry making & your own selfish interests, cheating or messing around etc. I love my family to death & nothing or nobody will stop me from giving them the world on a silver platter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@MichElle-sd6gj In Kevin's case the Lions see him as a member or leader of the pride, he raised most of them from cubs so it's slot deeper than just him being the one of feeds them, he also plays with them, joins them while they hunt, grooms them and etc.
@@mtxumi Not necessarily true, Lions turn on each other often in the wild.
Of course it's for survival reasons and most of these Lions see Kevin as a member or leader of their pride so it's unlikely they would ever do that to him.
Lions are beautiful but their emotional receptors if you can call it that are not wired the same way as most humans are. They are nice to some who earn their trust, but they don't get overly attached like you think they do, one slight mistake and you're done in their mind. It takes a tremendous effort, work and care to make them even slightly loyal to a human to be able to be up close with them. Humans have an emotional buffer of sorts. You love and respect someone, even after you betray them or steer them the wrong way they still have a high threshold for forgiveness. Lions don't work that way. It's a very thin line. But they are magnificent creatures.
How wonderful to see Meg and Amy spending time with Kevin. Poor Amy, I miss her sweet self. Kevin is an animal hero, like Steve Irwin was, conserving, raising awareness & changing people's minds about lions and hyenas, and black leopards. I'm happily a member of Kevin's channel, helping his cause, so we conserve and save wild lions. ❤
I’m so very jealous... Meg and Amy are so very affectionate! It’s simply love at its purest.

If looks could kill 😅😂😂😂
meg and any ... so beautiful and magnificent!!!!

I loved the close-up look into Meg's eyes at the end of the video. Reminds me of looking into my own cat's eyes because I'm always left wondering what they're thinking. Meg's eyes were even more mysterious.
Meg and Amy ❤️❤️
This is a great tribute to Amy & Meg. Amy has just been dx'd w/leukemia. She's such a beauty!
I can't stop watching these videos, they make me feel so good, I'm obsessed a little bit:)
KevinRichardson you have been touched by the hand of God Himself...RESPECT SIR 🙏🙋💖💖💖💖💖💖✌👌👍
How can you be touched by which that does not exist ?
Terry L I know you mean it in the best way, but I gotta say you are pretty dumb, and the only one that has been touched is you, not by a god but by a dirty priest. I'm i right?
@@martinlarivee4061 LOL!!!! I was just about to say that. People are so stupid.
Brian Williams so people that have a different point of view than you are stupid?
God deniers seem to be some of the most arrogant, ignorant people out there. The ones parading around on you tube, at least
WOW! Savo and Tabby are Amy and Meg’s parents? Glad they took after you. Declawing Savo is bound to have broken his trust of humans.
This guy is Amazing! Mad Respect to you Sir. You are a blessing from God. God Bless You.
He's married :-( lol good for him. He deserves to be happy
I've never heard him talk about his wife once
I have learned more about lions in the past two weeks of watching Kevin’s videos that I have in my entire lifetime and I am 74. Thank you Kevin. You make this old man very happy just to see such magnificent creatures up close.
It is about time the government preserved these beautiful animals. Keep up the good work Kevin. I have followed you for years
These majestic animals are fortunate to have such a caring daddy. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK 🐯
The lion whisperer. He is a gift like the lions he cares for.
Im so happy we have you Kevin watching and educating people all over the world about Lion's. I wish you could live forever to fight for them. There will be no one like you in the future with this gift. Yes there will be people to carry on fighting for the Lion's but not like you. Your gift and relationships built with these Lions keep people watching and learning. Thank you.
4:21 look at those beautiful awesome paws. Gotta love them.
RIP Amy June 2003-January 12, 2020. You will be missed. 😇
Meg and Amy such cuties
It hasn't been very long since I've started watching Kevin's videos. So lam not watching them in any specific order. So! when Amy passed away l just felt so bad tears came rolling down my cheeks. I can only imagine how Kevin felt being with Amy for so long. What a beautiful girl she was.
That special bond the love and caring is unbelievable. I feel so privileged to feel apart just to watch the videos. Also having Kevin educate me about the Cats and Hyenas. Kevin if you get to read this can you tell us if your married and have any children as well. Keep up the wonderful work. Keep those videos coming,! We just love to watch them and your self together. Thank you Joni from Canada .
I am in love with Kevin and all his Lions and Lionesses!!!
Oooh meg and the late amy!! Love everyone at the kevin richardson foundation xxxx
All my love Amy from Liverpool UK
2:16 - a lion that loves water?!
God bless this man (and his tolerant wife, LOL).
These beauties are free from ticks (as they can be, with his care), free from broken jaws from a zebra kicking her, and God-willing, free from ba$$tard poachers.
Thank you very much for sharing this on YT.
Nanette
they are so freaking smart! She jumped on you after you spoke about it and she wanted to demonstrate what you were talking about. Amazing!
Meg and Amy are so beautiful here ❤️
So sweet to see Amy again!
Oh Meg and Amy. Love ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ these 2.
Wow!!!!!!
They are so beautiful and so huge wow!!!! Just beautiful!!!!
Geez, they're almost as tall as him when they're on all fours! Lol. You're the man, Kevin!
These are the best videos when you can relax and we can watch from a distance...love the 360 view too
We get used to seeing the unbelievable & amazing with widespread cameras & social media but DAMN
Just an unreal bond & relationship he has forged with these true apex predators is simply jaw-dropping.
When my housecat gets cranky I back off b/c they can put the hurt on you, all 10-12 pounds of him.
These ladies have the build of short horses, DAMN, look at their freakin frames, truly unbelievable.
Good on you Sir, you're a shinning light for sure.
thanks for sharing your experience with Kevin so long ago. I never seen meg without the hairs that sticks up by her right ear.
Kevin YOU ARE AMAZING PLAYING WITH THOSE BEAUTY ANIMALS 👍👍 ALWAYS IM WATCH YOUR VIDEOS VERY NICE 🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯🐯
The world is a better place with people like you in it... wildlife has to be protected...
Love pure and Simple Meg and Amy will miss you Amy so much. These girls adore Kevin
We like Kev so much we send his kids cute photos 🐾🐥
Great vid thanks fur posting ✨
Lions and tiger lives matter 🦁🐯👍
Poor Amy it must be so depressing for Meg to live the rest of her life without Amy since they were so close.
Thankfully she has a new pride
Sun or rain, nothing stops Kevin from doing his work & being with the lions. This man is an inspiration for me on so many levels. Thank you so much CasuallyListening for sharing these videos of Kevin with his lions. Do share more of these.
The queens of the animal kingdom. What gorgeous ladies they are!
Astounding how Meg is. Such beautiful animals...love all these films.
I love Kievins relationship with those beautiful lions!
Amazing man Kevin. Your pride is beautiful!!
So sweet Meg and Ami are with Kevin . I know Kev basically raised them, so I wonder what Kevin is for them ... like Mama? How they feel about Kevin? A family member? A friend?
Amy......u r missed beautiful girl....3 years has passed

Kevin Richardson is a very special person and the love, care, and affection he feels for these animals shows the best of humanity.
I just love Kevin and his lions well animals. Well, (the world's) animals. But he is keeping them safe thank God.. They are all so beautiful...
I enjoy all the lives of the lions with Kevin . He is part human part lion . They respect him and look at him as a one of them .
