Vik54 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 How cool is this? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14240681 Synopsis - Lion cub bought from Harrods - lived on the Kings road in groovy 60's London for a wee while and then returned to the wild at one year with help of the Born free Foundation. The lads that owned him as a cub went to visit a year after and the cat recognised them and goes bounding up to them and gave them big hugs and even lets them sit with his new pride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cragus Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 New to me. Amazing! Gobsmacked when the lion approaches them and is so friendly - they must of had some faith that it remembered them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
