Evidently they’re making a movie soon about Christian the lion. Christian was a pet lion, yes I said pet, purchased in 1969 at a Harrod’s department store in London by these 2 Australian dudes. He lived with them in their apartment, rode in their convertible Bentley, ate at fine restaurants and spent his days lounging in a furniture shop. Eventually he got too big and had to be released into the wild. The story of their reunion is pretty unbelievable and makes me wonder if lions have some sort of 6th sense. You can read an article all about Christian and his story here.

And here’s the video of their reunion 9 months later:

Awwwwww.
