It is probable that sooner or later the lion will attack the owners. From all I have read, seen and heard in my life caring for animals, the wild ones will eventually lash out, whether they intend to hurt the owner or not. It is because they are still wild animals. Domestication does not occur in one generation. Of course, we love to see the animal trusting and affectionate, but if it is in the wild, we are not doing it any good encouraging this behavior. I am not a biologist, but I will bet good money that any real biologists out ther will agree with me.
Nonetheless, it is compelling and terrific video and thank you for posting.
