Christian the Lion

I don't know if anyone has seen this or not already, but I thought it was very cute and wanted to share it!

That is beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes. He obviously love them alot

I just saw that yesterday, that is absolutely amazing!

It always gives me the warm-fuzzies. Good for them for doing the right thing, and bless that lion for remembering them.

I just thought it was too adorable not to share! I bet that is how John's big babies are with him!

I saw a longer version of this video on YouTube last week. I bawled then, and I'm bawling now!

ETA: Here is the version I saw before. It looks like there are several other videos about Christian too.
Snopes rates Christian's story as "true", and elaborates a bit. http://www.snopes.com/photos/animals/christian.asp Apparantly George Adamson of "Born Free" fame was involved in returning Christian to Africa. Such a sweet story!

Yes they are, especially our big baby Carmelo. I just love that video, just proves that these big cats can and DO bond with people

That is so sweet

Yes, beautiful! There is a thread here that has several links to the video and the lion's story.
