The original royal coat of arms depicts three lions. Lions were a very common heraldic figure at the time and stood for power and fierceness. In the later coat of arms of Great Britain these lions are still there, and added are two animals holding up the shield, the British lion (again) and the Scottish unicorn. The unicorn was considered a ferocious and extremely wild beast, and traditionally featured on the Scottish coat of arms. It stands for 'strength'.
