Excerpt:
The heart-warming video of the fearsome King of the Jungle, licking his former owners a year after they’d last seen each other, is truly touching.
As a cub, Christian was bought by two best friends in Harrods, who put him up in their antique shop until he grew too big for his surroundings.
In 1968, at 18 months, he was rehomed in George Adamson’s famous Kenyan wildlife sanctuary, which featured in the hit film Born Free.
A year on, when John Rendall and Anthony Bourke called to see Christian, they were warned not to get close or he’d tear them to pieces.
But instead the big-hearted big cat bounded over for a full-on cuddle.
So far the tear-jerking tail of the loving lion has gained more than six million fans on the video sharing site YouTube.
