This is something I really gotta share with you. Having a dog myself, I could really relate well with the owners of Christian the Lion. I saw this documentary on TV the other night, and my partner started to shed a few tears.
Christian the Lion was bought by 2 Aussies in Harrod’s Department store in the UK in 1969. This 14kg real lion was cramped in a cage after being hand-reared in a zoo.
These 2 Aussie guys felt sorry for the lion, so raised him in Chelsea. Unfortunately he got too big, so they re-introduced him to the wild in Kenya in 1970. A few years later they then went looking for Christian and take a look at the video to see what happens.
Christian the Lion then starred in 2 movies – The Lion at World’s End and Christian the Lion.
Anyway, watch this video. It’s a beautiful story. Love the creatures of God that spend time with us on this planet.
