Tribute To Christian, The Lion

Music by Dolly Parton and sung by whitney houston, the song ' will always love you' has proved to the apt tune to make a tribute for Christian the lion. I have fallen in love of Christian and this music too that touched my heart! Like millions around the globe, Christian's story has really moved me and I'll be purchasing the Christian's DVD. You can also buy it online here.

Christian was purchased in 1969 by two London based Australians John Rendall and Anthony 'Ace' Bourke. They discovered Christian for sale in Harrods' exotic pets department. Rendall described the visit he made along with Bourke and George Adamson: "We called him and he stood up and started to walk towards us very slowly. Then, as if he had become convinced it was us, he ran towards us, threw himself on to us, knocked us over, knocked George over and hugged us, like he used to, with his paws on our shoulders."
