This whole 'Christian the lion' story is just so wonderful! To think that there are people willing to pay money to shoot these amazing animals..... the mind boggles.
If I wrote what I think I would like to do to hunters/poachers, I would get banned by RUclips. They are cancer to our society & to our amazing wildlife. I hope poachers & hunters get wiped off of the planet.
Well done to these guys who basically saved Christian from a circus life or whatever, 2 great guys and I hope Christian's family are still in the wild today, amazing animals!
@6:01 The Lion "Club" from Harrods. My gratitudes to Ace, John, George and everyone who assisted for giving Christian a chance for a natural lion life. Regarding conservation, the proper stewardship is to ensure adequate habitats for all creatures on this planet to maintain balance on the ecosystem.
Great interview...I too will always love the story of this wonderful creature. The bond and love he shared with these gentlemen is indescribably beautiful. Just an FYI...Ace's last name is spelled Bourke...not Burke.
Finally, someone who noticed. I keep reading about Christian, John & Ace on a daily basis. Was so heartbroken to find out he passed away 5 days ago. If anything, it has brought me even closer to Christian's story than ever before. RIP John, what a wonderful legend. Reunited with Christian again in the heavens.
Christian was adorable little lion. 💕🦁💕 This story would never happen today but it is the stuff of fairytales. George Adamson said Christian weighed about 550 pounds as an adult. That’s huge!! I hope he had a good life.
Boy is my favorite, but Christian is a sweetheart. What other adult male lion than Boy lives around wild lions, fighting, hunting etc yet returns to always visit George the human. I watch this almost every night before sleep..
I also want to know what happened to Christian ' s sister. Is there anyone who knows what happened to her. Please write to a.bootvanderkoppel@gmail.com
I hope she has a beautiful peacefull life full of love. She deserve it. I hope someone read this and know what happened to Christian 's sister and can give an answer and will write to me: a.bootvanderkoppel@gmail.com
I feel bad for Christian's sister. I wish they gave more details on what happened to her. I would have a hard time just saving one of them. Especially separating siblings.
Probably ended up in a zoo. I mean who in their right mind would keep a lion cub as a pet. At least these guys got help and took him back to where he belonged. I doubt most people carèd as much as they did. For most pet lions a zoo was the only option. They are just not pet material.
Wow whats not to love about this story, the lengths Ace n John went to for Christian to return to the very place he belongs was the best thing they could’ve done. This story will touch the world & maybe others who keep Big Cats as “pets” for this is where they truely belong.... Free to roam in the wilderness 💯🙏👏👏👏❤️

Christian must have died long ago. According to John, Ace & George, he moved up north into the Meru National Park & lived out his life naturally like a wild lion. Very sad to inform though that our legendary John Rendall passed away some 5 days ago.
@@troizkastenstein357 Sadly John Rendall passed away earlier this year believed to be due to covid and Ace is still alive. There are possibly descendants of Christian's alive today - it would be amazing to think there could be.
I cry every time I watch it
I love Christian the lion
I cry too. Now I cry because of course Christian is no longer living. Everything about this makes me cry!
I cry when Christian notice this was the man who raised me ,and he ran straight to them ,hugged and loved this 2 man ❤️
My sister and I met Christian in Sophisticats in Chelsea as we lived round the corner. Amazing x
That must have been amazing. Such a wonderful story.
You are so lucky. That must have been amazing. Christian is a legendary lion who has such a huge special place in all of our hearts, doesn't he. 💙
Christian, Incredibly intelligent, smart and incredibly magnificent lion!. 🦁

Heartless cowards! (IMO)

The work still goes on today. Joy inspired people.
Save the lion, please! There are now 1/3 of total lions compare to Christian's time!
Boy is my favorite, but Christian is a sweetheart. What other adult male lion than Boy lives around wild lions, fighting, hunting etc yet returns to always visit George the human. I watch this almost every night before sleep..
De liefde die Christian geeft is onbeschrijfelijk. Zo intens en zo puur en onvoorwaardelijk, dat maakt veel los bij mij en moet ik erg om huilen.
I also want to know what happened to Christian ' s sister.
Is there anyone who knows what happened to her. Please write to a.bootvanderkoppel@gmail.com

I love this everytime I watch any Christian videos
A story of true love... between lion and men.
memory for christian lion....forever

She was bought by another party. Little is known about her after that.

John and Ace are still alive, in their mid-70s. Christian would have died long ago - lions in the wild live approximately 15 years.
