Christian the Lion

Two friends living in London in 1969 bought a 35-pound lion cub, who they named Christian, and raised him in a flat under the furniture store where they worked. But after a year, he had grown to 185 pounds and had become very expensive to feed. The men met wild life naturalist George Adamson, who helped them reintroduce Christian to his natural habitat in Kenya.

Here is the video on YouTube. It is a very heartfelt, telling story of true friendship... even in the animal kingdom. Here is a link to the article on Wikipedia - Christian the Lion

And something certainly worth blogging on.
