| What a wonderfull thing to do! It is a crime when people try and raise WILD animals as pets. These folks get a thumbs up for taking him back to the wild. I just hope no idiot seeing this video thinks it would be nice to have such an affectionet cat.
Sort of like Dalmations became the dog to have after the movie came out. So many were bred that should not have been. And people ended up with some horrible pets.
Sorry one of my pet peaves.

| Gill,
That is amazing, talk about trust. To stand there and have a lion come at you assuming that he remmembers you.
That was a nice pick me up this morning.

| Crazy to think that lions could be bought as pets from Harrods...were people really so ignorant about animals & their welfare that they thought keeping a lion in a domestic setting was normal?
I read that there are more tigers kept as domestic pets in the US than there are tigers in the wild throughout the World...how on Earth can the sale of these endangered wild animals be permitted?
There just isn't enough respect for the natural world...people are taught that they somehow have "ownership" of nature. The fact is, we humans are privileged guests on this planet & we should be treating the natural world with the kind of respect any visitor would have for another's home.
