Kevin Richardson is an autodidact, "The Lion Whisperer", as he is known, learned to handle lions alone.
According to reports, from three years old, he already felt this attraction to wildlife.
In South Africa, Kevin started working at the Lion Park in Johannesburg which handles about 80 lions, working with them for about 11 years. The zoologist avoided traditional methods to train animals ,such as cages and chains, and used other weapons: love, understanding and trust.

Big Major Cay is one of the paradise islands of the Bahamas.
Crystal clear water, white sand... a true paradise!
So far so normal because it is a common thing in the Bahamas, but this island has something interesting about it...
The only difference is that this island is completely uninhabited, I mean uninhabited by humans, because this island, for a totally unknown reason, is inhabited only by pigs.

Surely a boat with pigs must have been shipwrecked near the island and the pigs, as excellent swimmers, managed to get there.
In fact, if even elephants can swim, why shouldn't a pig?
The island became a tourist attraction because when a boat approaches, the swimming pigs come looking for food, near the tourists.

An interesting detail is that we think pigs are dirty, but notice how clean is this island, uninhabited by humans ...
A true paradox for an island full of pigs, I'm sure it would be different if it was full of humans.
