Apparently several people on the ~100 discord servers I'm on didn't know shrogs have pouches and reacted to this image with some form of "my life is a lie"

Interesting way to deal with how global the shrogs, that elaboration helps for sure.

Yeeeeep, I could see a more mainland evo of this with a more true mane called the Leoshrog (Kirukanjiasimba mfalmekubwa)" (Great-King Lion-Shrew in Swahili)...
