David Yarrow: " Basic Instinct.
Vayetse is probably the most handsome of Kevin Richardson’s lions and certainly the most famous. This image, taken in a flooded grassland after summer rains, is the strongest I have taken of him for a few years.
The key was to be low to the lion, close to the lion and yet safe. This mandate would not therefore have been for everyone. Lying in water a foot deep inside a metal cage in an African swamp is not for the precious, but it was my only option. My legs itched for days after, but I guess that was a small price to pay for this image.
It is important in these types of portraits for the eye contact of the lion to be emphatic. If the lion is not looking at me, the power of the image is materially reduced. It will be his eyes that tell us that Vayetse is focused, alert and on the hunt. That “Basic Instinct” was the narrative I was looking for and it is not always easy with a lion.
I am reminded that the eye is the window to the soul. "

Kevin Richardson: " Trusting and developing relationships with animals has always come easier to me than trusting and developing relationships with people. Animals, yes even wild ones, have no hidden agendas, unlike their fellow human cohabitants. Which one is more likely to turn on you and therefore which one is more dangerous I ask? "
Kevin Richardson: " This lion is called Bobcat. To say he has touched many people around the world’s hearts is an understatement. Would I say he’s helped spread the message about the plight of both captive and wild lions? Most definitely. Does this give him conservation value? I’d say so. Unfortunately there are so many who still regurgitate the rhetoric that ‘captive lions have no conservation value.’ It would be nice is they uttered something more imaginative. Have Bobcat and the other animals in the sanctuary taught you anything about conservation? "

Interesting playing skirmish, that male jag standing to try to find an opening and control the situation over the female resembles a little the tiger's fighting style.
