Hi Everyone,
It's Friday!
We have a new video coming later today, the reunion with some of the older animals at the sanctuary. There are some heart-warming greetings that I enjoyed. You will see that some of the older animals do not enjoy sharing their space as much, and I respect this. A chance to see some old friends (but not forgotten) as Dan the Editor has blended in some archive footage with the new video.
There is also a chance to see some other wildlife (all wildlife welcome here!) with a cameo from a thirsty Mr Millipede.
We have an exciting and lively action members video coming on Monday, with Thor's Pride. You will see the close-up dynamics of this pride. A number of people ask how they can support my work. Membership directly helps my work, helps the sanctuary, helps the Kevin Richardson Foundation projects that help protect wildlife in their natural habitats. It also gives you access to extra content and a great positive community. The feedback we get is overwhelmingly positive.

There are two tiers — Lion Whisperers and Pride Leaders.
Wishing you all a great weekend ahead.

Every entry you make is a promise. A promise that lions will have a safer future, free from exploitation and harm, living as they were meant to in the wild landscapes they call home. Because of you, vital habitats are protected, young people are inspired to become guardians of nature, and real, lasting coexistence is built between lions and the communities who share their land.

Which animals do you think you will see in action today ? Some great vocalizations in the catch-ups. Who likes the catnip. Will be interested in your feedback. Wishing you all a great weekend ahead.

Hi Everyone,
We have a great video coming on Friday
This was meant to be published last week but the Coal Tribute took priority last week.
There is a lot of activity as I filmed my return from a break over the Christmas period. A real variety of animals to be seen and one to enjoy with some uplifting greetings.
We have had some people query how can they support the channel. If you are interested membership directly helps my work, directly helps the animals at the Sanctuary. It also gives you access to extra content
