    Therewill be anotherLion Manshow . . . there will be quite a few,Busch said.

    I am talking to different ones[broadcasters] around the worldandI havenot made a decisionyet.

    A film crew was on site yester-day, filming Buschs interactionwith his big cats and scores of fanswhoattended theKingdomof Zionsofficial reopening over Easter

    weekend. During his three-yearabsence from the park, Busch alsocompleted some filming in the wildin South Africa.

    I am going to do filming for therest of my life, he said.

    Ididntuse tolikeit when I firststartedyearsago. But nowI enjoyit.I think it is a necessary thing toactually help educate and teachpeople around the world.

    If people can learn from that,

    that will actually put a smile on myface.

    Asked the secret behind TheLion Mans success, Busch replied:It isreal. . . and therealnessshows it shows on screen.

    CRAIG The Lion Man Busch hastold of his pride and joy in beingback with his big cats, at therenamed Kingdom of Zion wildlifepark.

    Busch is this weekendcelebrating the official reopeningof the park, on the outskirts ofWhangarei.

    Yesterday he invited SundayNews into the big cat reserve for aspecial behind-the-scenes tour.

    In between mingling with well-wishers, he said: To be back hereis unreal . . . it took about a week toactually realise that I am home.

    The minute I did get here, they[big cats] realised dad was home.They must have roared for abouttwo days.

    It is like a lion orchestra . . . anorchestra that is absolutely beauti-ful.

    In January, it was confirmedBusch who set upthepark in2002,handed control to his mother Pat-ricia Busch in 2006, and whoseemployment there ended two yearslater would return to Zion.

    His return followed the parks

    sale by receivers to new owners.Afterbeingaway fromthe park

    and its remaining 35 lions, tigers,cheetahs, leopard and serval forthree years, Craig Busch said therewere still moments he pinchedhimself to reassure him he reallywas back.

    I live for these animals, hesaid. My whole life is used up onthese guys because that is what Ibelieve in.

    Buschs lion orchestra roaredwith apparent glee during his

    three-hour escorted tour aroundthe parks sprawling grounds forSunday News yesterday.

    He also showed his bond withhis best mate, Zion the lion.

    He isthe most speciallionhere. . . and the most different, Buschsaid.

    He is very protective of hisdad.He doesnt like other people too

    close to me or any other lion. Andno matter where I am, myself andhim can feel each other.

    The big cat parks name haschanged from Zion Wildlife Gar-dens to Kingdom of Zion during hisabsence.

    I love the name Kingdom ofZion. It suitsthe parkand givesthatsort of Disney-kind of feel to the

    park, Busch said. And if you lookat some of the cats, they are almostlike characters of Disney.

    Itiswhat itmeans tome. . . itisa paradise for the cats and thepeople who come here.

    Busch was committed to con-tinuing the big cats welfare, andadding some new features to thepark. It will be a park that will be
