Christian the lion



"In 1969, John Rendall and Ace Berg saw a lion cub for sale in Harrods. Cramped and lonely in a small cage, they decided to bring it home. A local vicar allowed them to exercise the cub, now named Christian, in the church grounds but he very quickly became too big for their flat.

The only thing they could do was to try and reintroduce him to Africa, which they managed to do.

A year later they wanted to visit him but were told that he was now the head of his own pride and as such completely wild and would not remember them.

They went anyway."





Det här klippet visar först lite av den tiden John och Ace hade hand om Christian,
hur det gick när de lämnade honom i vildmarken och också hur det gick för dem
när de försökte träffa honom igen, ett år senare i Afrika:
