This symbol of the Dutch Lion has everything to do with Leo Belgicus, the shape of the countries borders. See the maps here: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_Belgicus

The elongated lion on the coat of arms is not a caricature, it is a representation of the now extinct Cape Lion which used to live South Africa during the days when Cape Town was a supply port for the VOC (Dutch East India Company). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cape_lion Memoirz (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 12:13, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
