Depending on the size of the pride, size of the other males in the pride, aggressiveness of this lion towards others in the pride.

A pride can consist of 3-to 25+ lions. Could have been him, his mate, and a child. If you watched the video, you'd see they got him in 1969. Quickly he got too big to live with them and play in the church. So they let him go in Africa. Now give or take a year or two I don't know the average lions growth rate. And the fact that most lions that are head of a pride for and average maximum of 2 years. It's VERY possible he was the head of the pride. If you look to the left of the video you'll see he left the Reserve he was on and most likely the pride he led in 1973. 4 years. 2 years or so with the people, and 2 with the pride.

Guess it is a pretty good "story".

Bug I agree, there's nothing like the bond between humans and animals.

LOL. My cat loves me for his food. So true.
