A very cute video: Leon Christian

This, one of the most watched videos on Youtube, shows the meeting of a lion and his owners. The story goes back to the 60s, and it set within British culture. A couple of friends tries to adopt a lion as their mascot and raise him in a city environment for as long as they can. The life conditions for the lion were not the best, besides there was always the risk of the lion acting violently towards another human being, as he is a wild animal. Considering this, his owners opted to move it to a place in which he could have a better life, an African reserve, where he would be able to live on his natural habitat and also relate to animals of his and other species. The video is very moving, as it demonstrates the link that the feline has created with his owners, something that casts doubts in many of the theories that state that animal are not capable of creating lasting affective bonds. It is a cute video to watch over and over again!
