WRONG!! The Leopard has always been the sigil of the Congo
This reminds me of the ANYOTO also known as
THE LEOPARD MEN SOCIETY OF CONGO/WEST AFRICA
The Leopard men of Congo also known as the Anyoto was secret society who were Trained men whose main duties was to carry out killings of the colonial masters during colonization (1980-1930)
They wore leopard like clothes/skin and had claws in their hands which they used in killing the Belgium colonizers designed to look like leopards attacks to erase their tracks
They did this to maintain local power and resist colonial control
The whites believed the practiced occults or cannibalism which granted them predatory strength and power cos they could not believe how strong they were
They could have dandee’d up the national team, those fits compared to their culture are too modest. Also, the designer didn’t hide their inspiration… 😂
