Heraldic animal (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lion

'heraldic animal' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for lion that I've seen before include "Wild cat" , "Big cat with pride" , "Leo" , "Buddhist scripture; Sanskrit rule" , "King of the forest" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
