Christian the Lion

Post by Snoopy »

History:
Christian was a lion originally purchased by Australians John Rendall and Anthony 'Ace' Bourke from Harrods department store of London in 1969 and ultimately reintroduced to the wild by conservationist George Adamson. One year after George Adamson released Christian to the wild, his former owners decided to go looking for him in Africa to see whether Christian would remember them. Surprisingly, he did and with him were other lions in the pride which were also friendly


Code: Select all

I'm an animal lover, and I found this somewhat inspirational. If you had a pet, there would be no better satisfaction than it remembering who you are!

Enjoy.

I expected the lion to do something else, but that was nice

Sadly. I didn't do a search beforehand. I do however, not remember Hes' thread of this.

Wouldn't want yet another Warning level for bringing an old thread back to life anyway.
