Man Rescues Lion After Years Of Being Chained. His Reaction Will Make You Cry

The dry sun burned across Ngamo, a small village on the edge of Hwange National Park.
In the middle of the red dirt yard, a skinny male lion was chained tightly to a wooden post.
The rusty chain tightened deeply, leaving a swollen wound around its once proud neck.
Its dull amber eyes reflected despair, like a dying fire in the wind.
Children giggled, throwing corn husks at it, watching the scene as a bizarre pastime.
Adults stood far away, proudly showing off to visitors that the ferocious beast had become a talisman.
The lion was exhausted, breathing heavily and licking the dry, muddy water trough.
