This is amazing... tamed lion
Information taken from wikipedia.
Christian was a lion purchased in 1969 by two Australians living in London, John Rendall and Anthony 'Ace' Bourke (sometimes erroneously cited as Ace Berg) — from Harrods department store.
Rendall, his girlfriend Jennifer Mary, Bourke and Unity Jones cared for the lion as it grew too large to remain their pet. After meeting Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna, who starred in the film Born Free, Rendall and Bourke agreed to have Christian sent to Kenya with the assistance of conservationist George Adamson — in order that Christian be rehabilitated into the wild at Kora National Reserve.
After Christian had been in Kenya a year, Rendall and Bourke returned and visited their former pet. The animal recognized them, reared up, grasped and nuzzled both Randell and Bourke. The following video of the event received widespread dissemination around 2007-2008, more than 35 years later.

This is really amazing to me. I thought to myself... if it was a man, the man would probably go insane in the wild and not recognizes his caretaker and master when he returns for visit.
Do we remember and recogizes our Master when He returns? Will we run towards Him and grap Him, hug Him and kisses Him? Are we like Christian - the lion? Are we Christian?
