Classic European lions
... And unicorns??
Europe used to have lions, especially southern Europe.
Is "southern Europe" what they used to call colonies in Africa?
If you go back far enough there were now extinct lions in northern Europe as well. But wild lions as we know them today existed in Greece, the Balkans, etc. Even as late as the 10th century CE.
Don't forget the dragon!
Unicorns are notably ferocious animals. Their recent association with little girls has done significant harm to their reputation.
Back in the days when unicorns were unicorns, and girls were girls.
And unicorns would probably do totally sick shit like carry off little girls and eat their livers.
Simpler times.
