Meet Armand, The Man Who Cuddles Lions As If They Were Small Kittens

Lions are the kings of the jungle and there is a good reason why they have earned this nickname. They are apex predators and no one can get close to them if they are feeling hungry because things will never turn out good.

However, there is a man by the name of Armand who is also known as “the lion whisperer”. The man is petting lions, tigers, leopards and all other types of wild cats as if they were small kittens!
