Christian the Lion

For those of you completely out of the loop, here is a tear-jerker video of a reunion with a long lost lion cub with his human companions! So, the story is that these 2 British guys (from the 70's, if the hair & clothes are any indication) bought this lion cub, from Harrod's of all places, when they saw him in a cage there and felt sorry that he had to live in a cage. So they raised him for awhile, until he grew too big for their home. Then they sent him to a sanctuary in Africa. I think this video was taken a year later. I was shocked to see this - Christian actually remembers them! Well, either that or he cuddles and hugs with all kinds of strange humans.

By the way, if you go to youtube, there's another version of this but edited so that all you hear is Whitney Houston's rendition of "I Will Always Love You". I implore you to watch this one instead, as it features a woman narrating the reunion. Part of a documentary, I suspect. Enjoy!
