Asking if you've seen the "Christian the Lion" YouTube hit is like asking if you've ever been to the Internet.

Just like he's a person! (8 million views.) Now negotiations for it to be turned into a movie are underway, says Reuters. (In case you haven't seen the video, it's after the jump for a little slice of love.)
