Even the strongest banks in the world, retailers like target cant spend enough money or hire enough people to solve this problem. Whitaker there is no Cyber Security, it sounds like youre saying. 97 literally 97 of all companies are getting breached. Whitaker 97 . 97 . Whitaker thats outrageous. It is outrageous. Have you had a long day today . Its been horrible. Its been a terrible day. You had to spend the entire day out in the bush. What a nightmare. Youre very heavy, my boy. Can you get off me . Thank you. Ward how can this man play like this with the most feared animals in africa . Part of answer, as you will hear tonight, is because he saves them. Im steve kroft. Im lesley stahl. Im morley safer. Im lara logan. Im bill whittaker. Im scott pelley. Those stories tonight on 60 minutes. Theres a big difference between running a race and leading one. When youre in charge. You get to call the shots. How cool is that . The 2015 corolla. Toyota. Lets go places. Ive had moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis most my life. But that hasnt stopped me from modeling. My doctor told me about stelara®. It helps keep my skin clearer. With only 4 doses a year after 2 starter doses. Stelara® helps me be in season. Stelara® may lower your ability to fight infections and increase your risk of infections. Some serious infections require hospitalization. Before starting stelara®. Your doctor should test for tuberculosis. Stelara® may increase your risk of cancer. Always tell your doctor if you have any sign of infection, have had cancer, or if you develop any new skin growths. Do not take stelara® if you are allergic to stelara® or any of its ingredients. Alert your doctor of new or worsening problems including headaches, seizures, confusion and vision problems these may be signs of a rare, potentially fatal brain condition. Serious allergic reactions can occur. Tell your doctor if you or anyone in your house needs or has recently received a vaccine. In a medical study, most stelara® patients saw at least 75 clearer skin. And the majority were rated as cleared or minimal at 12 weeks. Stelara® helps keep my skin clearer. Ask your doctor about stelara®. That its given me time toabout reflect on some of lifeseen biggest questions. Like, if you could save hundreds on Car Insurance by making one simple call, why wouldnt you make that call . See, the only thing i can think of is that you cant get any. Bars. Ah, thats better. Its a beautiful view. I wonder if i can see mt. Rushmore from here. Geico. Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on Car Insurance. Thlook what i got. P. Oh my froot loops [sniffs] lets do this . Get up get up get up get up loop me bring back the awesome. Yeah yeah yeah with the great taste of Kelloggs Froot loops. Follow your nose pelley while were giving thanks for the feast this weekend, lets not leave out what may be one of the best ideas that america ever had. Its called the World Food Programme, the emergency First Responder to hunger anywhere on the globe. The United Nations launched w. F. P. In 1961 at the urging of the united states. And today, the u. S. Government pays the biggest part of the bill as the World Food Programme feeds 80 Million People a year. Its greatest challenges come when it confronts war and hunger. And thats whats happening today in syria, where you will find heroes of the World Food Programme saving the most Vulnerable People in what looked to us like the edge of oblivion. The map said, no mans land. We plowed the border of jordan and syria, where the jordanian military told us we would find war refugees. But considering the wasteland, it seemed more likely the map was right. Who could survive here but after several hours, we found them, pouring over the land like a flash flood. With 300 miles behind them, these syrian families made their final steps through a war that nearly killed them and a desert that could have finished the job. Watch a moment, and listen. This berm marks the border between syria and jordan. The refugees that we ran into were coming across the top of the berm and turning themselves in to the safety of jordanian border officers here. More than a million have crossed into jordan so far during the threeyear civil war in syria. They had been farmers, shopkeepers, office workers. Now, they shared one occupation saving the children, with matted hair and faces covered in ten days of misery. We noticed the little ones theres bombing all around us, she said. Im afraid for my children. But i dont know what will become of us now. You dont know whats coming next, but you know this must be better than where you came from . She had taken five of her children. Her husband took four by another route. And they hope to find one another. Halima said they managed to save everyone in her family. But as for the fate of others in her town, no translation was needed. Andrew harper this is happening every day. Every day, we are getting hundreds of people, sometimes up to 1,000 people fleeing the violence, fleeing the deprivation in syria and coming across into jordan. Pelley Andrew Harper is in charge in jordan for the United Nations high commissioner for refugees. What kind of shape are they in when they come at the end of this journey . Harper its horrific. Were seeing, like, children coming across now without any shoes. Often theyve only got one pair of clothes, some of them are just wearing their pajamas, because when their. When their places were bombed, they had nothing to grab to leave. Pelley the u. N. Refugee Relief Agency and jordanian troops met the families, gave them food and water, and loaded them up for the trip to a u. N. Camp. There was room for everyone on the trucks, but no mother would take that chance. They pressed their children in first. Parents had sacrificed all they had to see this moment. And a long dead emotion began to stir. It felt like hope. You know, this wars been going on for three years. Why are these people still coming now . Harper because its getting worse. Its. I think now, more than ever, there is absolutely no hope for the future at the moment in syria. Pelley part of what has stolen hope inside syria is hunger. Starvation is a weapon in the war that began as an uprising against the dictator, bashar al assad. These words read kneel or starve, signed assads soldiers. All sides are laying siege to communities and cutting off the food. This is what happened in a neighborhood called yarmouk when a u. N. Food convoy broke through. The people had eaten the dogs and the cats, and were running low on leaves and grass. This girl eventually starved to death, five miles or so from a supermarket. Etharin cousin are we willing to lose a generation of children to hunger . To lack of access to medicines . To lack of access to water while we wait until the fighting stops . No, we cant. Pelley etharin cousin is executive director of the World Food Programme. Shes a former Food Industry executive from chicago. W. F. P. Is often headed by an american because the u. S. Donates more than a third of the 4 billion annual budget. Cousin the operation in syria is one of the largest that we have ever operated in w. F. P. We have over 3,000 trucks supporting 45,000 metric tons of food delivered every month inside syria. Pelley all of that and your people are getting shot at. Cousin all of that and people are getting shot at. Its a war zone. Its a conflict zone. The world doesnt stop, the war doesnt stop, the conflict doesnt end because people need to eat. Pelley the World Food Programme estimates that more than six million syrians do not know where their next meal is coming from. Matthew hollingworth these are areas where people have nothing. They really do have nothing. Pelley Matthew Hollingworth heads the World Food Programme mission inside syria. In february, he led an armored column into the city of homs, which had been sealed off by the dictatorship for 600 days. Hollingworth people were skin and bones. I could lift a grown man because hed got to about 40 kilos. Pelley 85 pounds or so . Hollingworth exactly. Pelley in the city of homs, months of negotiations had opened a threeday ceasefire to distribute food. But it turned out the starving residents wanted Something Else first. Hollingworth the people of old homs asked us to evacuate women, children, and the sick before any assistance came in. So we went through the last checkpoint, and there we could see in front of us 80 or 90 children, women, and sick and injured people waiting to come out. And then the worst thing happened the sniping started. Pelley people were shooting at you. Hollingworth people started to shoot at us. So we took the decision then to put the vehicles, the Armored Vehicles in front of the. The area where they were shooting down in the alley to allow the people to come out. It was a hugely moving experience. And we successfully brought them out. This opened the way the following day for us to go into homs and deliver the first assistance. And we did that successfully, but halfway through, sadly, the operation, we came under mortar fire. explosions hollingworth it was panic, chaos. People screaming, people running everywhere. The hot metal flying around you. Pelley you decided to stay, and i wonder why. Hollingworth wed seen the faces of the people who were asking us to help them, asking United Nations to help them in their time of crisis, which is why were here. So we again negotiated with all the sides to, this time, obey the ceasefire, to respect the ceasefire. And we went in the following day and the next day and the next day, and the rest is history. Pelley history records that, in homs, w. F. P. Evacuated 1,300 people and brought in enough food to feed 2,500 others for a month. But elsewhere in syria, more than one million remain beyond reach. November the fifth, 2013. Pelley we know theyre there because we can hear their pleas for help. A man in a damascus suburb called moadamiyeh put out a series of videos on youtube. In a protest to the world to enter the humanitarian aids to the besieged city of moadamiyeh. Pelley after several videos begged for someone to break the siege, the man made his way out of syria. We found him, but were not using his name to protect his family. People are starving to death while food and medicine is only two minutes away behind the assad checkpoints. Pelley tell me what you witnessed, what you saw with your own eyes. Even while the regime is bombing, nobody cared. It seems like, if you die from the shelling, it will be a merciful way to die instead of dying from hunger, because it will take months to die from hunger. People lost faith with the world, with their families, even with god. Nobody understood that we can die from hunger in the 21st century in syria. Pelley the regime shelled moadamiyeh to rubble, used nerve gas on the population, but it was starvation. Yes. Pelley . That broke the town. Thats absolutely true. It can destroy your soul, your mind, your beliefs, before it can destroy your body. Nobody in this world, no matter who he is, deserves to die from hunger. Nobody. Pelley that is the principle on which the World Food Programme was founded, an idea in the eisenhower administration, after 70 Million People around the world starved to death in the first half of the 20th century. Today, w. F. P. Is in 75 countries plagued by war or weather. It has an air force, a navy, and an army of 14,000 people. But Emergency Response is just part of what it does. The World Food Programme prevents famines by teaching farming. It uses its vast purchasing power to support small farms. All of this, despite the fact that w. F. P. Gets no funding from the United Nations. It raises its budget entirely from donations by governments, companies, and individuals. But in syria, the need is so great, the money is falling short. We got a sense of the scale of that need by flying over the latest u. N. Refugee camp with the Jordanian Police and the u. N. s Andrew Harper. Harper were looking at probably one of the Worlds Largest refugee camps. Pelley the Refugee Families we saw earlier at the border were headed here. You have built this for 130,000 refugees. Do you think youre going to have that many . Harper well, if you look this, theres about 6. 5 Million People displaced in syria. I think we may even need to build more than this. Pelley when the u. N. Camps opened, the World Food Programme served three meals a day. But it soon discovered that these families hungered for more than just a meal. Cousin what theyre receiving is not food. But theyre actually receiving a voucher which will give them the ability to decide what food their family can eat for the month. Pelley why do you do that . Cousin it gives them a choice, more than anything else, and its gives them respect. Pelley respect because the vouchers are a ticket here. Where there was only desert, the World Food Programme has built supermarkets like any in america. Osama and his wife led nine children through the desert after their daughter was wounded by a mortar. Each member of his family now gets a w. F. P. Voucher for 29 a month. The difference between being fed out of the back of a truck and cooking your own meal is dignity. Cousin its dignity. Its providing your children with some hope. Pelley back on the border, in the last moments of the day, we ran into another exodus families pressing through no mans land on a path marked only by the desperate steps of those whod come before. Jordanian troops crossed into syria to lift a woman who had stopped short, saying, mother, we are on the border. In recent weeks, jordan has been forced to reduce the numbers it can accept. And the World Food Programme has come perilously close to cutting back rations for lack of funds. But millions more are on the move, and the days of war remain uncounted.

Whitaker this Holiday Shopping season, you might worry that every time you swipe your credit or debit card, some criminal might be swiping your account number, and with good reason. The number of reported illegal intrusions into the Computer Systems of u. S. Companies is at a record high this year and climbing. The hacking of target, home depot, staples, and other top retailers made headlines. Behind the headlines are two separate crimes with two sets of criminals. Sophisticated cyber thieves steal your credit card information. Common criminals buy it and go on shopping sprees, racking up billions of dollars in fraudulent purchases. The cost of the fraud is calculated into the price of every item you buy. When computer crooks swipe your card number, we all end up paying the price. 2014 is becoming known as the year of the data breach. The theft of 40 million credit cards from target late last year was followed by news of a breach at Michaels Stores involving more than two million credit cards. Then came pf changs. And in september, home depot announced that 56 million of its customers credit card numbers were stolen. Dave dewalt nearly every company is. Is vulnerable. Whitaker dave dewalt is c. E. O. Of fireeye, a Cyber Security company that gets hired to keep hackers from getting into a companys network, or getting them out after theres been a breach. Dewalt even the strongest banks in the world banks like j. P. Morgan, retailers like home depot, retailers like target cant spend enough money or hire enough people to solve this problem. Whitaker Cyber Security is a misnomer. Its. There is no Cyber Security, it sounds like youre saying. Dewalt this isnt a lack of effort. Most of the Large Companies are. Are growing their security spend, yet 97 . Literally 97 of all companies are getting breached. So theres a gap here. Whitaker 97 . Dewalt 97 . In fact, we. Whitaker thats. Thats outrageous. Dewalt it is outrageous. Its pretty amazing. Whitaker fireeye tracks assaults on its clients with a realtime map showing where computer attacks originate and their targets. Its an eerie throwback to cold war illustrations of what a Nuclear Missile attack might look like. But with cyber attacks, this goes on 24 hours a day. Charles carmakal 24 hours a day, yeah. Whitaker Charles Carmakal leads teams of First Responders for fireeye. Carmakal we are seeing hundreds of thousands of attacks on. On a weekly basis across the globe. Whitaker and these are just the ones that your systems are picking up. Carmakal thats right. Dewalt on average, the breaches from the time of infection. From when the bad guys get in to the time they are discovered is a whopping 229 days 229 days. Whitaker forensic investigations reveal that 80 of Security Breaches involve stolen and weak passwords. One of the most common is 123 456. Dewalt the days when we have our username and password, which is our son or daughters name, or our cat or our dog is not enough security for. You know, for todays attackers. Breaches are inevitable. Its happening. Its just life that we live in today. Whitaker inevitable . Dewalt inevitable. Whitaker just accept that. Dewalt accept that a little bit. Whitaker . They are going to get in. Dewalt theyre going to get in. But dont let them access the information thats really important. Dont let them get back out with that information. Detect it sooner, respond sooner. And ultimately, that exposure is very small. Maybe they got away with a few credit cards, maybe they didnt get away with any credit cards, but they didnt steal 56 million of them or 40 million of them. Whitaker target declined our request for an oncamera interview, but the breach of its security a year ago is a case study in how hackers operate. It started when criminals stole the username and password from one of targets vendors, a pennsylvania heating and air conditioning company. The credentials got them into targets Network Without attracting attention. Once inside, they easily spread to thousands of checkout terminals in nearly every store. The hackers then installed malicious software, or malware, to record card swipes. Dewalt the Company Invested a lot of money in security. It wasnt like they werent trying to stop the bad guys. Its just the bad guys were really good, one. Number two, theyre very persistent. Whitaker a Security System target recently bought from dave dewalts company did detect the intrusion and triggered alarms. But targets older Security Systems were still in place, generating millions of alerts similar to these. Most were for minor technical glitches, and warnings from fireeye were lost in the noise. So alarms were going off . Dewalt alarms were going off. And when you get millions of alerts a day, and theres one or two alerts that are the ones blinking red, theres a problem, theres a problem, you can miss it. And its very hard to find the needle in the haystack. So targets problem ultimtely became, i couldnt find the needle. I couldnt see the one alert that was bright red. Whitaker last december 18, a week before christmas, a Cyber Security blogger named brian krebs first reported the story publicly. Brian krebs the breach lasted for a little more than three weeks. But they actually managed to hit target at the busiest time of year for them. Whitaker krebs office is like a computerized crows nest, a hightech perch from which he scours the cyber world for early signs of underworld activity. Over the past year, he broke the news on his blog that criminals had hacked into a dozen retailers and chain restaurants, including dairy queen and the home depot. Krebs a lot of times, those companies have already been notified by law enforcement, by secret service or the f. B. I. Whitaker but it sounds like its usually discovered by people outside of the company. Krebs thats almost universally true, yes. Whitaker why is that . Krebs a lot of times, the first indicators that you get that. That one of these organizations is compromised is when their customers Financial Information goes up for sale in the underground. You, know, theyre running a business and, frankly, theyre not focused on Cyber Security. Whitaker there are scores of sinister Online Shopping bazaars where cyber thieves put their goods up for sale. Think amazon. Com for thieves. This is where krebs does his detective work. Theyre just right on the. On the web . You can buy stolen cards by just going to this site . Krebs absolutely. Whitaker big batches of stolen card numbers are called dumps. Krebs figures out which banks have customers stolen cards up for sale and alerts them. The banks then check to see which merchant is the common link. Krebs if theyre willing to share that information with me, i can take that and go back to other banks and say, look, this is the pattern theyre seeing. What are you seeing . Whitaker the bulk of cards sell for anywhere from 10 to 50, depending on things like the Expiration Date or the credit limit. Krebs in the case of target, they stole 40 million cards. But you know how many cards they managed to sell . About 5 of those, so now. Whitaker thats still a lot of cards. Krebs its still a lot. And i say only because each of those cards, the average price was about 20 per card. So thats a lot of money any way you slice it. Whitaker the thieves offer volume discounts, and sales and Customer Service includes refunds if the cards have been cancelled. Krebs if you buy from them and it comes back as declined, theyll automatically credit the amount that you bought for that card cost. So theyll. Theyll automatically credit your account. Whitaker youre kidding. This stolen card will work or youll get your money back. Krebs yeah, absolutely. Whitaker customers are told to make payments with Western Union or other Money Transfer methods. Credit cards are not accepted. The masterminds behind the hacking and selling of stolen card data are sophisticated crime syndicates. Most are in russia and eastern europe, primarily ukraine, and out of easy reach of american law enforcement. Ed lowery heads the Criminal Division of the u. S. Secret service, which investigates financial cyber crimes. The fairly big breaches weve been seeing target, home depot. Whos behind that . Ed lowery well, those are professional cybercriminals. Those individuals, they make their living and a very good living, at times attacking the u. S. Financial infrastructure. That level of cybercriminal, that is the the newage cartel, as it were. Whitaker secret ervice arrests have led to the convictions of 14 people, but there are plenty of others to take their places. The criminals buying the stolen numbers dont have to be that sophisticated. Is it fairly easy to turn those numbers you buy online into one of these cards . Lowery now, i really dont want the general public to think that they should go out and start committing fraud. But it. Obviously, the encoding and all takes a little higher level of sophistication. And you have to have the criminal drive to do it. But is it highly technical . In light of the intrusions were speaking about and the. And the rest, no, its not, not nearly that sophisticated. Whitaker buyers are all over the world. In the u. S. , street gangs are among the crooks to use stolen cards. They buy gift cards, which are like cash, and electronics, which they resell for quick profits. Krebs if you buy a card for 20 and you can make 400 off each card, thats a pretty good return on your investment. Whitaker pretty good. For many banks, news of a breach from brian krebs is the first sign they have of a problem. Two of his regular readers are barry abramowitz, chief Information Officer for liberty bank in connecticut, and linda swartz, who heads up security for Westfield Bank in massachusetts. So, you dont hear about it until brian krebs breaks it . Linda swartz pretty much. Barry abramowitz thats what makes his work so valuable. Swartz exactly. If you know theres a problem, you can stop it from occurring, or stop the bleeding before it gets too bad. But you need to know that information. Whitaker most banks and Credit Unions rely on mastercard, visa and other Card Companies to notify them when a customers account may have been stolen, but theyre not told which retailer was hacked or when. Why dont they tell you which retailer is responsible or involved . Abramowitz i dont know. Swartz probably so it doesnt place the blame on the merchant who was compromised. They dont want us to go back to that merchant and say, you. You know, your system was compromised. You lost my customers information. Whitaker but why not . Swartz its business. I mean, i hate actually saying that it was home depot and target, but those are the ones that are in the media. Whitaker how big a problem are these Security Breaches for the banks . Abramowitz huge. Swartz yeah. Abramowitz huge. Whitaker in 2013, stolen credit cards led to estimates as high as 11 billion in fraud in the u. S. That doesnt include the cost to banks of replacing millions of cards and monitoring customers accounts for suspicious activity. So when the customer is told that hes not going to lose anything out of his pocket, the customers not going to pay for the fraud, somebodys paying for it. Swartz the bank. Abramowitz the banks are the. The victims who are actually paying for the breaches, rather than the retailers that have had the information compromised. Whitaker the home depot, like other recently breached retailers, declined our request for an oncamera interview, citing ongoing investigations. Mallory duncan is with the National Retail federation, the industrys largest trade group. He says the Magnetic Stripe cards are just too easy to counterfeit. Mallory duncan ;the underlying problem is that we have cards that were designed for the 1960s, 70s and 80s, but we now have hackers who are using 21st century tools to break in. Whitaker are the retailers really doing everything they can to secure customers information . Duncan were doing everything our. We possibly can to secure it, but. Whitaker what does that mean, possibly can . Duncan well, because the. The problem is youre trying to secure a house of straw. The cards themselves are fundamentally fraud prone. Whitaker after a year of relentless breaches, bankers, retailers and Security Companies all agree the Technology Behind credit cards is broken and needs to change. Visa and mastercard declined to be interviewed, but said the rollout of credit cards with computer Chip Technology next year will make counterfeiting cards almost impossible. Apple and google are promoting their own Payment Systems to protect account information, and retailers like the home depot are encrypting the data. The changes will cost billions of dollars and take years to implement. This Christmas Shopping season, youre expecting this to happen again. Swartz absolutely, we know its going to. Its inevitable. We feel like were just kind of sitting and waiting for it to happen. Theres not a lot we can do to stop it. Welcome to the cbs sports update presented by pacific life.

Pelley now, cbs news correspondent Clarissa Ward on assignment for 60 minutes. Ward the african lion is the most feared predator in the wild. It is designed to kill. But tonight, well show you a very different side of these aweinspiring animals. Our guide is south africas selftaught animal behaviorist, Kevin Richardson. Getting up close and personal with lions is his lifes work. It has earned him the nickname the lion whisperer. We visited his sanctuary, a few hours outside of johannesburg, where richardson spends most of his days with his 28 adopted lions. But the story of how he ended up with an extended family of huge cats reveals some disturbing truths about a south African Tourism industry with a sinister side. We strapped a couple of small cameras onto Kevin Richardson to get a good look at the unique relationship he has with these animals. First stop this morning finding two of his lions, gabby and bobcat. When they hear his call, they rush out to greet him like a long lost friend. This emotional bond is incredibly rare. Kevin richardson how was last night . Did you enjoy . Did you have a good time . Ward his ability to interact with them so freely is a result of the fact that he has known them since they were cubs, when richardson worked at a lion park for tourists. All of these animals were born in captivity and can never be released into the wild. But they are far from tame and wouldnt accept any other human being getting this close to them. Richardson have you had a long day today . Its been horrible. Its been a terrible day. You had to spend the entire day out in the bush. What a nightmare. Youre very heavy, my boy. Can you get off me . Thank you. Thats kind of you. Ward richardson himself acknowledges that the boundaries are different with each animal, a lesson he learned the hard way when he was bitten by a lion he didnt know well. We kept our cameras at a safe distance and, at times, shot from a drone hovering overhead. You dont get nervous at all when shes licking your face like that . Richardson no. Youve got to have trust that shes not going to do anything except to tend to bite you like that. Ward so right now, shes just playing . Richardson shes just playing, yeah. It all depends on how you roll with them. If you kind of stiffen up and pretend that youre all nervous, then they stiffen up, and they want to grab you and they want to claw you and they want to bite you, even if you know them. Ward does she know that shes stronger than you . Richardson i dont know if she consciously thinks that shes stronger than me. I think she just respects the fact that, you know, im part of her group. And she wants me on my back now. laughs oh, my gorgeous. Oh, youre a nightmare, you lions. Ward this is not a circus act. Unlike the vast majority of people who work with captive lions, Kevin Richardson doesnt carry a stick or a stun gun, and he doesnt control his animals through fear. In this relationship, the lions are his equals, and they rarely take orders. Richardson youre naughty. A naughty cat. Ward that means he can break every one of the established rules for interacting with these big cats. He looks them in the eye, gets down to their level, lies down on the ground with them. And people who know lions say you should never, ever, turn your back on one. But seen from the drone, that same incident reveals kevins secret. The lioness goes on to do exactly the same thing to the male lion. Richardson is just one of the pride. Richardson they do seem to be attached in a way. Because when you go away, they do miss you, and they do lovingly greet you when you come back. Theyre the only social cat, as we know, a truly social cat. So thats quite important to lions. Ward what do you think the biggest misconception about lions is . Richardson biggest misconception is mindless, man eating killer. In fact, they are really just big, scared animals that are designed to kill, because thats how theyve evolved. But the truth be known, theyd rather run away than confront. Ward we were told we would probably be okay sitting in an open truck. But when a lion weighing more than 400 pounds sidles up for a closer look, that doesnt seem like much of a guarantee. Richardson youre fine, youre fine. Youre fine, youre fine. Ward theyre just so big. Richardson yeah. They. I. I suppose something that always struck me was the first time i saw a lion, it was a big boy like him. And i was driving to this camp. And he started roaring next to the window. But he looked me in the eyes. I was in quite a lowslung car. And thats. Thats a memory ill never forget, you know, just the power of the. The roar, but also the sheer size. I was like, whoa, i didnt realize they were that big. Ward how many people are there who can do what you do . Richardson there are many people around the world who have amazing relationships with animals, and. And with lions, you know . Im not going to claim it as, like, something unique to Kevin Richardson. Ward but would you say you have a gift . Richardson i think the gift really is to maybe explore the boundaries where most people would be bitten or or scratched or, you know, be in such a vulnerable position, where they think, well, why would i ever want to put myself in that situation . And youve. Youve got to do it once. You know, they. Theres. Its an amazing thing to suddenly be able to turn your back on a fullgrown lion and not worry that hes going to come and grab you on the back of the neck. So i suppose, from that perspective, it is a bit of. Maybe its ballsiness. I dont know. And the gift that goes with it, i suppose, is knowing when to leave them alone. Ward Kevin Richardson started this sanctuary to protect his lions from a multi Million Dollar industry that he was once a part of. For years, richardson worked at the lion park, one of dozens of places in south africa where tourists, many of them americans, pay top dollar for the privilege of petting lion cubs. The parks breed their lions constantly to ensure a supply of cubs year round, but once the lions reach maturity, they are too dangerous to be near tourists. Places like the lion park claim that their older cats are sent out to live out the rest of their days in good homes. Richardson well, the question i have is, where are these good homes . Because id like to visit a few of those good homes myself, and maybe even some of my cats could go to these good homes. The. The reality is there arent any. Ward this is where many of those cubs actually end up in something called a canned. gunshots . Where, for prices up to 100,000, you can go into an enclosure and shoot a lion. Its entirely legal, but online videos from Animal Rights groups and hunting operations show how brutal it can be. An animal thats been petted and fed by humans since birth makes a pretty easy target. Chris mercer runs a campaign to try to get canned hunting banned. Chris mercer you put the lion into the enclosure, and then the hunter comes and shoots it and takes it out. Ward so, essentially, its like shooting fish in a barrel. Mercer oh, theres no skill involved at all. Its. Its not hunting at all. Your canned lion hunter is actually a collector, hes not a hunter. Ward a collector of trophies. Mercer hes a collector of trophies. Ward most of the tourists who pay to play with cubs believe that theyre helping the animals. Mercer whenever you pet a lion cub, you are directly enriching the canned lion hunting industry. And i hope that anybody watching this Program Takes this to heart. Ward what percentage of cubs in these facilities do you think end up in hunting operations . Mercer virtually all the cubs that are petted in this country are going to be shot, sooner or later. Ward how do you know that . Mercer well, we know that there is no other market for adult lions, other than the hunting industry. Lions eat meat, meats expensive. So every day that that huntable lion remains with the breeder is money lost. They have to get rid of it. And its the hunting operation that takes it. Ward the cubpetting business has spent years trying to hide that fact. We went to the lion park where Kevin Richardson started out. His former boss, rodney fuhr, claims that parks like his aid conservation. By allowing people to interact with the lions, he said, it raises interest in the species. I can see the appeal. Theyre beautiful animals. We asked fuhr where these lions would end up. Rodney fuhr we try and sell them to credible zoos and parks around the world. Ward so you would claim right now that no lions that are bred here end up in a hunting facility . Fuhr yeah. Now, that. That. Under oath, you know. Ward because weve been. Weve been given a few names of people who youve allegedly sold lions to, all of whom are associated with hunting operations nazir cajeekobus, van der westhuizen, and kobus jakobs, ben duminy. Fuhr yeah, well, i. Let me interrupt you there. Now, thats true. But like i said, we havent done that for the last couple of years. Ward even within the last 18 months, though, weve been told youve sold one batch of 17 lions to nazir cajee and another batch of 17 lions to joanne hulley, who resells lions to hunt operators. Is that correct or not . Fuhr im surprised its 18 months, because i thought it was longer. Like i said, you know, we were doing it. We were selling it to traders, and of course zoos and. As well. Ward so some of your lions have ended up. Fuhr i thought it was more than 18 months. Ward but the reality is some of your lions have ended up in hunting operations. And its very difficult for you to guarantee that they wont continue to end up in these hunting operations. Fuhr well, they wont do it while im here. This whole thing about canned hunting what is canned hunting, you know . And i think its grossly exaggerated, you know. But what about. What are the jobs that were providing and the hunting industry, thousands of jobs. This has got to be weighed up against the odd lion that may be sold when hes eight years old, you know. In the wild, he wouldnt probably even live to eight. Ward for Kevin Richardson, the idea that the lions he had worked with since birth might end up in a canned hunt was too much. So he teamed up with a partner to buy all 26 of them and move them to his sanctuary. So you couldnt leave without taking your lions with you. Richardson exactly. Ward and the logistics of getting 26 lions. Richardson thats been. Been a struggle. Put it that way, yeah. Ward wildlife documentary work and a paid volunteer program are covering the bills for now, but lions can live for more than 20 years. So these lions are almost, like, your adopted family now. Richardson 100 . Ward youre stuck with them. Richardson i am. And. And some are good and some are bad, you know . You got to take the good with the bad. Ward like family. laughter richardson exactly. You cant. You cant pick and choose. I formed relationships with. With a bunch of lions, unknowingly at the time what the consequences potentially later on down the line would be, not really knowing what i was actually getting involved with. But ill be the first to admit that its an emotional connection that i have. And i cant just turn my back on them now. Clarissa ward comes face to face with lions. Go to 60minutesovertime. Com.
