Wild White Lion Saved From Lifetime Of Pain

Aslan became a different lion when he lost two of his vital canine teeth. Kevin Richardson (aka the ‘Lion Whisperer’) explains that the white lion’s whole personality changed because of his dental problems. He become aloof and agitated and a challenge to work with. He was also isolating himself from his pride.

This video tells the story of how Kevin worked with Fixodent to give Aslan his bite back, and more importantly, remove the constant chronic pain he was living with. Kevin runs a lion sanctuary in South Africa that is dedicated to preserving the large cats in the wild. He arranged for a team of animal doctors to come on-site to help Aslan.

In the video, you’ll see Aslan undergo the surgical procedure to fix his teeth. The lion gets a root canal and has four teeth fixed, instead of just the two originally expected. He was worked on for six hours and pulled through without any complications.

It’s amazing to see the change in Aslan after his surgery. Kevin is once again able to rub the lion’s chin again and when Aslan is reunited with his pride, they are all happy to see him.

The king is back where he belongs!
