The real tell it is propaganda and bullshit, is the released wild lion's "wife" comes in to smooch and meet the human "friends".

The old guy in the video is Adamson, the "Born Free" guy, so the "wild lion 'wife'" of the released lion is almost certainly another tame 'released' Adamson lion.

For the hundreds if not thousands of "lump in the throat" responders to the bullshit lion love video, of course this is 99% missed in their emotional joy of experiencing a BS fantasy video ....
