Born Free Redux

by Frank Roche on August 10, 2007

When I was a kid, Born Free was my favorite movie. I loved that part at the end of the film when Joy Adamson was reunited with Elsa and her cubs. for the longest time I thought I wanted to be a naturalist, or at least go to Africa.

This video is described this way: “This lion was reared by the guys in the vid,he was then released into the wild in africa but a year later the guys returned to see if he was doing OK. Check out the look on the lions face as he realises-”thats not food its my MATES!!” Whats mad is the wild lions hes friends with never met the humans but they are totally passive towards them.”

Amazing.

    I loved that movie and Elsa. I know what you mean, I wanted her for a pet, too! Born free/As free as the wind blows/As free as the grass grows/Born free to follow your heart. (I still know all the words these number of decades later.)
