The Story of Christian - Ep.1: A lion cub in London

In the first episode of the Story of Christian series, we look into how a little lion cub found its way from Harrods to the furniture store.
Born Free’s Co-Founders Virginia McKenna OBE and Will Travers OBE fondly remember the story of Christian the Lion - a lion cub bought from Harrods and released into the wilds of Kenya by the legendary lion conservationist George Adamson.

Born Free Foundation The story of Christian has always touched Me particularly deeply especially when He runs to hug them that Day. I always wonder about Christian. Is Christian in a protected part of the wild? I hope so with the cruelty that goes on with these trophy hunters & poachers. I'm guessing He is in a protected part so may I ask is He still with Us Today? I know He had a Lady Friend
