Lion Cubs Hug Trainer On His Last Day At Park

[Kadie]

In this heartwarming video, baby lions climb, hug and lick a park worker on his last day on the job.

It's not certain if the man in the video is a volunteer or an official worker at the lion park, but one thing is for sure -- these animals don't want to let him go. Their squeals alone are enough to make you shed a tear.

2. So very cute.

Can cat lovers translate for us? Obviously they love him, but do they know it's good-bye?

3. In their own way, yes.

Animals are very good at sensing emotions in humans. I once had
a cat that could sense my moods. She would know if I was depressed,
tired, happy, etc and approach me accordingly.

4. The idiots who say can'ts aren't affectionate should watch this.

So adorable!

5. That is just too cute. I bet he could come back in ten years and they would all remember him.

7. they made sure to make him as their human

any other lion pride he meets will know he is spoken for already. my cat magic does that head rub ear nibble thing to me as well....often at 3:30 am

8. I don't want him to leave either

I love how the one couldn't get him from the front so he went around to hug him from behind

10. So sweet!

I sent it to my most cat-loving friend. She just adopted a new one; she volunteers at a cat rescue and he stepped out of his cage right onto her shoulder.
