Christian left the Kora Reserve in 1973. He
made his new territory along the Tana river,
but when the Wakamba herdsmen kept bringing
their livestock to his hunting ground, he
moved on. George Adamson said in his
autobiography, "I used to count the days on
which we hadn't seen Christian, but when they
reached 97, I gave up recording them in my
diary." Because a lion can live from 12 to 15
years in the wild, Adamson believed that
Christian ended his days in the Meru National
Reserve only a few miles up river.
"Lion Man" Gareth Patterson, author,
environmentalist, and the person who
continued George Adamson's lion
rehabilitation work, revisited Kora in 1998.
This is what he found...

| Christian the Lion- Reunion! |
 |
So these two people raised this lion cub who
they named Christian, and sadly he got too
big for them to take care of so they decided
to release him to live as a wild lion. Well,
in this footage, a year has passed and it
looks like Christian's adapted to living with
a pride of lions when his old friends come
back to visit him. Watch closely and you can
see the look of pure disbelief that dawns on
his muzzle- it's awesome. ^_^ Next thing you
know, we have a heart warming reunion. Not
long after, members of Christian's pride
approach and even they seem to accept
Christian's human friends.
Again, THIS IS NOT MINE! This footage from
Christian's documentary was also kleptoed
from www.kimbawlion.com- a FANTASTIC website
about Kimba the White Lion. ^_^ So send all
Kudos where it belongs!
I'm only uploading these to give people
who're oblivious to Kimba an idea as to what
the heart of the series really is about. ^.^
