(Big) Cats and Dogs

The lion who is best friends with a labrador

It's not often you see a dog enjoying a game of rough and tumble with a cat...

And especially not with such a big cat as Chobi the lioness.But you can tell from the way she wraps her paw around him in play that the four-year-old adores Prince the golden labrador.

He has been her canine companion ever since she was an orphan cub, raised with him at a game reserve in South Africa.And even after being released back into the wild, Chobi often returns to the Tshukudu reserve in Limpopo to see her pooch ­playmate. It mutt be love...
