So, I was reading Reddit as I always do when I was captured by Calvin & Hobbes, The Later Years. I mean, who wouldn’t be caught since that seems to be everyone’s favorite comic. The adventures of a little boy and his tiger. The joys of the imagination. The story that tells you to be yourself, even when you want to be just a little naughty.
And then along comes the story of a real lion for sale at Harrods and his adoption (and rescue) by John Rendall and Ace Berg. But this video pretty much tells the whole story with live footage of the time when the men were reunited with their cub, who was now a full grown lion with his own pride in Africa.
Watch and enjoy. Be careful of the onions. They got me crying too!
– thanks Reddit. Now I need tissues…sniff, sniff…and thanks Ryan Price for bringing this story out again in such a beautiful way….I’m still crying…
