How raising a lion cub has changed my life forever

In this episode, we're going way back! I often get asked how Sirga, a tiny lion cub, came into my life, how I raised her and how we formed a unique bond. In this episode I read from my diary in which I documented Sirgas first 60 days with me - the last time I had a look at it, was at the time I wrote it. 8 years ago. I am also telling the story of the very first kill she made when she was just 16 months old. Many "Lion experts" told me, that after her first kill, everything in our relationship would change. Well, I was also worried. But it all turned out very differently than anyone could have imagined. Enjoy listening to the Kalahari diaries!
