A little more plausible is this line of camels from the mid-11thC Old English Hexateuch :) http://britishlibrary.typepad.co.uk/digitisedmanuscripts/2013/04/how-the-camel-got-the-hump.html …pic.twitter.com/JUQKGvuUZI

With regard to dinosaur-like Anglo-Saxon animals, my fav is still beast w/ blue glass eyes from 8thC Witham Bowl :)pic.twitter.com/Ses544fFLU
@caitlinrgreen the King is captivated by your array of mystical beasts Dr Caitlin...I'm afraid 2 venture from my Meadhall lest I meet one! 
@SaxonHarold They are certainly fearsome beasties! ;)
@caitlinrgreen I suspect the Elephant had lost his trunk as the result of a baggage handling error at the row of the Hæth! 


@caitlinrgreen They took a description and made it resemble a beast they knew, a wild boar, botched the ears, made the trunk into a tongue.
@alas_not_me I think that's pretty much it! :)
@caitlinrgreen Sabre Toothed Tiger???
@caitlinrgreen The very small ears make me wonder if this is not some re-version of an hippopotamus of sorts
@morangles I think they got v confused, but manuscript indicates is meant to be an elephant!
@caitlinrgreen Dialogue monk copists: this is supposed to be an elephant - They will not notice : they are illiterate - Add gold to distract
@caitlinrgreen @bxknits that's a leopard-hog.
@caitlinrgreen @DetectingDigsUK Looking at ears , claws, head shape - I'd venture this is more likely a sabre - tooth or other big cat ?
@caitlinrgreen looks more like a sabre tooth tiger
