I was watching Big Cat 24/7 on the TV this evening.
Wow! I had tears in my eyes when the lion prides reunited following a period of separation. The process is marked by vigorous social bonding behaviours, including head rubbing and vocalisations. It is absolutely wonderful to see.
I was a fan of “Born Free” as a child.

The Born Free television series ran on NBC from September 1974 to December 1974. It was a short-lived, 13-episode series, following the 1966 film and the true story of rearing a lioness. I loved the series. 🙂
