SL, ergo the earning of the Peace Prize. No, you can't and shouldn't humanize any wild animal to that degree. These folks were so special to believe in this lion so unconditionally as to risk their lives to search him out. His "wife", so to speak, seemed quite indifferent and at ease during this encounter. I am assuming because her mate was so playful and obviously quite happy. The entire story is so hard to believe, but it was vetted. I still marvel at the video. Good to hear from you Sidney......Johnny
