Christian- A lion at Worlds end

friendship is one of the best thing i got to know when i was a kid may be for every one too. its the only thing everyone could have fore ever, and it always mean something speacial to every one. and that too when you meet your very old friend after a long time......., one cant describe the feelings and joy you you experience.. well here is a story of a Lion named christian who spent his early days with two 'human' friends john Rendell and Ace Berg in london. well many would have know this true story still i wanted to post it here as a tribute to christian. After an year christian was moved to a wild in kenya-Africa where he became the head of the pride after a tragic year.. then johnand Ace decided to meet their old friend though many insisted that christian has become wild and may not remember them.. well see what happens....
yeah that was a heart touching video.. well even the most feared animal do posses true love and friendship... humans got to think about it...
after their first reunion in 1972 its been said they had met christian after two years when he was succesfully defending his own pride during this second reunion he was double the size he was in the earlier reunion, they got to meet his cub named supercub after that its been hard to track christian since the pride shifted elsewhere in the wild..

well Rendall describes the visit he and George Adamson made
We called him and he stood up and started to walk towards us very slowly. Then, as if he had become convinced it was us, he ran towards us, threw himself on to us, knocked us over, knocked George over and hugged us, like he used to, with his paws on our shoulders.”
