The
tour
begins
with
a
talk
about
the
work
being
done
for
conservation
of
the
lions
and
this
is
important
work
as
the
species
is
endangered
in
the
wild.
Obviously
this
is
a
bone
of
contention
about
whether
these
types
of
reserves
are
good
for
the
lions
and
other
animals.
My
take
on
it
that
with
human
encroachment
into
the
wild
areas,
all
animals
need
a
few
different
strategies
to
prevent
the
loss
of
species…
and
conservation
parks
like
Ukutula
have
an
important
part
to
play
in
education
and
understanding.
That
said
the
activity
of
walking
with
the
lions
is
a
heart
stopping,
exhilarating
experience
and
you
definitely
feel
you
are
taking
your
life
out
of
your
control.
Fortunately
the
guides
are
exceptional
and
are
there
to
protect
you
and
curate
the
experience.
It
is
however
risky
because
they
are
wild
animals.
But
what
an
honour
to
walk
with
these
majestic
creatures.
Can’t
thank
the
guides
enough.
They
are
masters.
The
petting
with
the
cheetahs
and
baby
lions
is
special.
There
is
room
for
parks
such
as
this
to
educate
and
make
us
fall
in
love
with
these
animals
and
therefore
fight
for
their
futures.
Of
course
you
always
hope
that
the
humans
attending
the
sessions
are
humble
enough
to
listen
to
the
instructions
for
everyone’s
safety…
you
hope
they
can
forget
about
the
selfies
and
desire
for
a
response
from
a
big
cat,
to
simply
be
on
alert
and
enjoy
the
animals…
One
of
the
most
memorable
experiences
of
our
lives.
