It seems that common terms like "lion" and "elephant" are now
considered inappropriate for these animals. Or so this article would

I've never heard of this website/organization (conservativewoman.co.uk)
and I'm pretty sure this article is actually a spoof in the vein of The
Babylon Bee but you be the judge. The proposals certainly resemble the
kinds of things we seek from wokesters all the time.
