There are many people out there who love animals and devote their lives to them.

"The touching reunion of Damian Aspinall with adult male gorilla, Kwibi, whom he hadn't seen in over 5 years.

Damian raised Kwibi at Howletts Wild Animal Park in England and then released him into the wild in Africa when he was 5 years old.

Watch the full story on Animal Planet's series Gorilla School."

(Damien Aspinall released the video in 2010.)

you can google Christian the lion and watch the video. Christian brings his mate to meet the guys too. They raised him in London until he got too big.
