K'wasi the lion was born at Zoo Miami in late 2013 and captured the hearts
of the nation; however, his story soon turned dark as K'wasi was orphaned only
a few months later. Join wildlife documentarian Ron Magill and Miami Herald
columnist Greg Cote as they detail the remarkable true story of K'wasi.

Magill and Cote reflect on K'wasi's fight for life and the parallels to Magill's
own improbable and unique path into wildlife conservation. Magill and Cote
highlight the beauty and suffering found in K'wasi's story and throughout the
animal kingdom in the hopes of helping us all understand that, in the end, we
protect what we love, we love what we understand, and we understand what we're
taught.

Funny, touching, and profound, The Pride of a Lion teaches us just
how much humans can learn from animals.
