The huge carnivore approaches from a distance, slowly at first. Then recognition sets in, and soon everyone - men and beast - are hugging and crying.Christian even brings one of the lionesses in his pride over to meet his former roommates. The Daily Mail story reports that the lioness was clearly not happy with Christian's two-legged friends, and Adamson told Rendall and Bourke that it was time to leave. They went back to the camp, and Christian went with them, staying up late into the night as the humans partied with their friend.The next day Christian walked back into the bush, where his lionesses were waiting. He was never seen again - but the power of the Internet guarantees that he will never be forgotten.

Nov 22, 2008 - Such a gr8 video, thx so much. Fantastic to see the love between this beautiful lion and the people who cared for him. The poachers and trophy hunters shd see this video. Such lovely creatures who love their cubs and need food, that's the only reason they can get scary if humans get too close. It's not their fault their food is on 4 legs and they have to catch it first (in the wild). Show love and you get it back, humans can do that too if they try. Thanks for sharing this.
