A Lion of a Hug

I really don't know if this is true or not, but it's a nifty story making the rounds on the internet, and so here is the story:
The woman in this video found this lion injured in the forest and ready to die. She took the lion with her and nursed it back to health. When the lion was better, she made arrangements with a zoo to take the lion and give it a new and happy home.
This video was taken when the woman, after some time, visited the lion to see how he was doing. Watch the lion's reaction when he sees her. Amazing!!

A Liger?
6:00 AM

This is a liger named Hercules who lives at the Institute of Greatly Endangered and Rare Species (T.I.G.E.R.S.) in Myrtle Beach.
A liger is the offspring of a male lion and a female tiger. The opposite case, the offspring of a male tiger and a female lion, is known as a tigon.
Hercules was the result of an accident rather than deliberate breeding.
He is three years old - still a baby,
stands 10 feet tall on his hind legs,and weighs about 1,000 lbs.
At maturity he is expected to reach 12 feet in length and weigh about 1,250 lbs. He eats about 20 lbs. of meat per day, and he can consume up to 100 lbs of food in one sitting
