Yeah, but like, seeing a 2-inch by 2-inch medieval depiction of what a lion is and actually seeing a 420lb roaring beast are two different things. They didn’t have TV or Internet, so like, most people on the planet would never be within 100 miles of a lion in their whole lives.
But they know they exist and they are probably familiar with wolfs and bears, so it’s not like they would be totally awestruck and not know what to do or expect.
