I know most of you probably already seen this, but I thought it was SOO sweet!! It's soo touching!

Lion Reunion
-
That was like the coolest. I always wanted to play with a lion, but they are too crazy unless you do what these guys did.
I loved when they came back to see it and it was rubbing his face on them and almost knocked them over.
-
first time I saw this I was just waiting for the carnage to insue... possibly I'm a little dammaged
-
Eventually, Christian will eat one of those guys.He's a lion.
-
I saw this a week or so ago.. I thought it was quite touching.But I found it rather weird that a "wild" lioness would walk up to the humans and be allowed to be touched. There was something strange about that. I don't see that happening.
-
Aww I just cried watching that sweet video!

I thought lions ate Christians!
that wasn't funny. :fearful:

nevah!!
-
lol omg what was that movie with the mice... or was it cats... it was a movie with some kind of animals and they were singing "never say never, say never again dodo do do"
-
If a lion started walking up to me out in the wild, I would shit myself and then pass out. I would have done the same if I was one of those guys playing with it in the yard with a ball when it jumped up on me. Those guys are crazy!
-
You touch on a significant point, sdp. It is said of the lion that "he" is head of a pride - but that's a lioness.Fishy!
-
Well being that Christian was the head of the pride and if he "said" it was safe or if the people were alright than it's not too hard to believe.Though I think I read somewhere that the lioness also used to be a rescue lion like Christian, which makes more sense to why she did not attack the two guys.
-
So now there are two lions?
I'm afraid the story strikes me as fictional.
-
Nah it's far from fictional. The two guys were both on some morning show as well talking about Christian as well as some organization they have now. Think there is even a whole wiki about the Christian story.Yeah there were two lions, guess I didn't post the right video. Basically at the end of the video the lioness of the pride walks up to the guys as well and lets them pet her, though seems to be much more "shy" than Christian.
-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_the_lionJust a little more info.
-
oh my god! i cried.
-
Of a young pride yes. Christian's pride remained small until several years later when he had cubs of his own, that's when he stopped welcoming the two guys into his territory.
-
I'm sorry, re-watch the video and look for who??(And no not for a few days )
-
Oh LoL No I didn't rewatch the video to look for those lolBut I agree Christian was a rather immature male, I believe what I read he was only like 2-3 years old when they visited him the first time in the wild. It was a few years after that when Christian's pride became large and he had cubs of his own and he no longer welcomed the two men into his camp.
-
Though I think I read somewhere that the lioness also used to be a rescue lion like Christian That would make sense. It never mentioned it in the version I saw.. It just said he had a pride and brought his "wife" which wouldn't have happened if she was a truly wild lioness.
