I'm so excited! Christian the hugging lion's story is going to be made into a movie! Here's the article:

I love this story. Two guys from swinging 1969 Chelsea London raise a lion cub named Christan until he becomes too big and they have to introduce him into the wild. They met up with George Adamson (whom the movie Born Free was about) and he helps them let Christian go. After a year they go back to Africa with George and find Christian's lion pride. They were told he wouldn't recognize them and that he was now a wild lion that wouldn't be like the playful cub they had raised. As you can see in the video below that wasn't the case :)
Because Christian was the leader of his pride, the other lions also accepted the three men and didn't tear them to shreds!
