  • I have seen a moved movie which represents a family of lions recently.They lived a happy and harmony life before a hunter killed thefather lion.And one of the little lions were taken away to the
    circus.The mother lion took the other lion out from danger.But bad
    things happened,one day,the hunter following with hundreds of people to
    hunt for the survival lions.Mother lion hided the little lion in a small
    hole,and fight with human beings.while someone shoot at the mother
    lion,she was so clever and pretend to die,and catched the chance when
    these human beings were laughing, run away.the little lion was found by a
    boy, and was taken home.he live a happy day,until one day he killed a
    pet dog.he was threw into cage.

      Time flied.both of the little lions had grown up,they were strong but sorrow.the silly people held a game that people whatch thetwo lions fight against each other,untill one died.so cruel these
    people.they fight at the beginning and then they recognised each
    other.and managed to escape.they did it.Human would not let lions hit
    people even they hadn't hurt anyone.Lions were innocent.Villagers got
    together to kill the brothers.One hunter,who killed their father,watched
    them and was touched by the two lions,they wouldn't leave anyone
    behind,wouldn't just escape himself.they want to be together foever,no
    one less.the hunter lay down his gun,let the lions go and aware that he
    should not touch the gun and would not kill any animals.the two lions
    went to there former home,found their mother and leave the town and
    settled in the jungle,freely and happily.
