The controversial conservation experiment to live with man-eating lions | 60 Minutes Australia

Sep 06 2023
REWIND TO 2009: Living, hunting, and even sleeping with man-eating lions. You can say Kevin Richardson and Dave Salmoni are pretty brave, even a little crazy. They are conservationists risking life and limb to save the last of Africa’s wild lions. With much of their wilderness fast disappearing, more and more lions are being forced into nature parks, where many don’t take too kindly to camera-wielding tourists. Richardson and Salmoni were involved in a controversial experiment to habituate lions to humans. The stakes are high - unless the lions learn to live with humans, their days are numbered. For over forty years, 60 Minutes have been telling Australians the world’s greatest stories. Tales that changed history, our nation and our lives. Reporters Liz Hayes, Tom Steinfort, Tara Brown, Nick McKenzie and Amelia Adams look past the headlines because there is always a bigger picture. Sundays are for 60 Minutes. #60MinutesAustralia
