One of the latest hits in Youtube is this touching story about the reunion of Christian the Lion and his former owners.
In 1969, John Rendall and Athony "Ace" Burke bought the then 16kg lion cub and named him Christian. Just like any lion, he soon grew large, too large for the two to keep in their home. So they decided to put him back into the wild through the wildlife sanctuary in Kenya.
Christian adapted very well to the wild and soon had his own pride. The former owners, hearing about this, decided to visit him one last time. Although they were told that he may not recognize them because he's back in the wild, they went for it anyway.
Then.... well, let the video show you exactly what happened, okay? :)
With Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You in the background, this video charmed millions of internet surfers everywhere!
Christian hugging his old owners shows he remembers them really well. These animals are smarter and more intelligent than what we give them credit for.
It's nice somebody found this clip and posted it in YouTube. :)
