A #Caturday #NotALion in one of the #MedievalManuscripts of Pembroke College, Cambridge (now held at Cambridge University Library). #Manuscripts #Critters #MedievalAnimals

@TetZoo has a short article up arguing the Kleinmachnow animal looks an awful lot like a boar, and boar are common in that part of Germany. Much more likely than a lion. I will confess to hoping it turns out to be a bear, but it looks more like a boar than a bear, and a bear would need to be wandering far afield.
So it's probably a boar.

@LordGeekington , I'm wondering what you think.

Would you rather be visited by an angel or a winged-lion with an excellent quiff?

Spot The Difference!

These fine specimens of a 1648 Netherlandish Lion,
Leo Belgicus, are almost identical, but not quite!
