Part of the Pride: My Life Among the Big Cats of Africa
Author: Kevin Richardson
Was R280.95 Now R224.76
Looking some of the world's most deadly animals directly in the eye, Kevin Richardson has made a place for himself in the often dangerous animal kingdom. He's broken every taboo working with lions, hyenas and other predators. Flouting common misconceptions that breaking an animal's spirit is the best way to subdue them, he uses love, understanding and trust to develop deep personal bonds with them. His unique method of learning their individual personalities, what makes each one angry, happy, or irritated--like a mother to a child--has caused them to accept him like one of their own. Richardson sleeps with adult male lions, cuddles newborn hyenas, and swims with lionesses. This powerful connection has dispelled myths and shown these animals as complex creatures capable of human-like bonds. In this remarkable book, Richardson, with novelist Tony Park, delves into the minds of the big cats to show how he became a part of the pride.
