Christian, the Lion. Bring your hanky if you haven't seen this story.

This story, true story, about a lion cub bought at Harrods and then reintroduced to the wilds in Africa is making the rounds of the talk shows, news shows, and youtube.  I caught a glimpse of it on TV when I was doing exercises in front of the TV.  This morning the guys who are in this video, now senior citizens, were being interviewed.  It is truly one of the most heart-moving stories that I've ever watched.

So it will take almost no time to watch and you'll come away with tears in your eyes.  Take a look at Christian the Lion.

Barbara - I saw this story the other day.  It brought tears to my eyes.  It's a beautiful story, although I think I'd have been scared to death that the lion wouldn't remember me and attack me...  :)

Debi, I cry too each time I watch it. 

Duane, it is truly heartwarming, isn't it.  It was a long time ago.  Go and google and get the latest reports about him.  I saw the two guys on TV the other day and they'd become old and I believe they lost track of the lion after that visit.
