@sarah_kanj: Actress /Animal-rights activist Tippi Hedren (Most famous for her role in Alfred Hitchcock's, The Birds) With her daughter Melanie Griffith and Neil the Lion at their home in California, 1971. Life magazine: "In 1971, LIFE photographer Michael Rougier spent time with Hedren; her teenage daughter, Melanie Griffith (from Hedren's first marriage, to Peter Griffith), her then-husband, the agent and movie producer, Noel Marshall; and others at their home in California. Also in attendance: Neil, a 400-pound mature lion, who occasionally slept in the same bed as Griffith and, as these pictures attest, had the run of the house, from the kitchen to the living room to the swimming pool. Hedren has since acknowledged that it was "stupid beyond belief" to put her family at risk by allowing an animal with "no conscience or remorse genes" to roam free. On that, at least, we can all agree even if these pictures make Neil look like the world's biggest pussycat". re Michael Rougier / The LIFE Picture Collection/ Shutterstock #animal #animals #lion #wildlife #zoo #Tippihedren #melaniegriffith #explorepage #vintage #modern #reels #vintage #nostalgia #california #actress #70s #photography #photographer #vintagephotography #animalactivist #animala
