Christian the Lion Goes to the Movies

If you have not yet stumbled across the YouTube.com sensation, "A Lion Called Christian," you really need to click on the link below and view this now at the Borders web site. In 1969, two young men bought a cub at Harrods and lived with him in London until he was too large to stay in their flat any more. They knew they had to release him back into the wild, so they took him to Africa. A year later they went back to visit him, even though they had been told that he had become the head of his own pride and would no longer remember them. This video reveals the amazing power of love between animals and humans, and will make you cry, so go ahead and grab a tissue before you watch it. You'll be glad you did. We'll wait here for you.

The story is now not only a published book, A Lion Called Christian, but it is also a full-length movie. Got your tissue ready? Good, then we present to you the YouTube.com sensation, "A Lion Called Christian." Don't say we didn't warn you about the need for a tissue.
