This is a true story (from "christian, the lion who thought he was people"). There's many Christian the lion videos already posted, I simply edited the video and the music. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. If you'd like to see the entire video on this, irridescent posted a 10 part video from the original movie. I do not claim any of the original film or music.
I know it's old, but I thought it was worth sharing in chat.
Love is a wonderful thing.
Neat story. I think I remember seeing this a while back. Funny I was just perusing FR headlines and not seconds before, had posted these stories about a wild African dog, and two lioness stories:

Oh that would be great! I would love to see it.
Thinking about the goat got me to thinking about some of my other favourite lonely animal stories. And I just shared them with my FRiend.
This is about Solo the Wild African dog that adopts jackals for family and becomes friends with hyenas:

Then there was Lady Liuwa (The Last Lioness), a totally wild lioness, who adopted a European film crew...beautiful story:

And my favourite about Ma-di-Tau (The Last Lions) who had no pride and eventually became the leader of her rivals...amazing story:

Thanks! I remember this being on the news years ago. It is truly an amazing relationship that this lion had with these 2 gentlemen.
