Message | The scorpion is a feeble creature, easily crushed by people wearing decent boots. The lion is a fitting animal, a killer of Hutori's enemies! |

Message | We're not thinking of these tiny, shy scorpions, we have the bigger, majestetic, deadly and poisonous ones in mind! Scorpions from ancient tales, that lurk in dark caves and catacombs deep under the sands of Hutori's deserts. Think about it: The lion may be fearsome, but the scorpion can easily kill the lion by attacking him from behind. It is a dark and dangerous animal and therefore the right animal for both our movement and the country. |

Message | Most scorpions hide when they sense danger and only sting when disturbed. The lion, at least, is a real predator. It doesn't have to rely on venom, but on sheer brute force. Its muscular body is a monument to its majesty, which rightly gives the lion the title of "King of all Animals". |

Message | What about the others? Majestic, but brutal lion, or deadly, stealthy and poisonous scorpion? (Just think of it: a scorpion banner!) |
