Added: Sep 2, 2009
Author: alioncalledchristian
Duration: 2:34
Description:
In 1969 two young Australians Anthony Bourke and John Rendall visited Harrods in London and became enchanted with a young Lion cub, acting on impulse and with no previous Lion experience they immediately decided to buy him. They took possession of Christian some weeks later and moved him into their flat which had a basement under a shop, this was to become the lions home.Christian soon grew both in size and popularity and his boisterousness caused quite a stir in the antique shop he called home. But all good things must end and keeping a growing lion in the centre of London became untenable. Relief was at hand when George Adamson agreed to help Christian adapt to his new found home in Kenya and the relocation began.In 2008, a clip of the reunion with Christian was posted on YouTube and became an internet sensation. Overnight people wanted to know more about what lay behind this clip.

Mar 7, 2012 - This seems to be one of the success stories of getting a wild animal back to where it should be. These guys did the right thing. I'm sure it was hard to let him go but they were thinking of what's right for the lion not themselves. Even if he died out there that was the natural order of things.

Mar 29, 2012 - Hersek70-thank u, I was feeling bad that he was never seen again after 1972, and after I read your comment it made my heart feel less heavy for the lion knowing it was in his best interest

Apr 19, 2012 - Must have been an incredible experience. But I, personally, would be too frightened of the animals instincs, to trust him not to suddenly eat me. I'd have one of those if they were domesticated, but that's be sad the lion, but what a big cuddle cat it'd be. :)
