Here's the sentence I found it in: "بعد أن قتل الأسد شنزبة ندم كثيرًا لأنّه كان أعزّ أصحابه" I translated it like this : "When the lion killed a (?), he felt very sorry, because he was one of his dearest friends". So I thought the شنزبة had to be an animal, or something a lion could kill.. It's a tale from "Kalila wa Dimna", so I think it's supposed to be Classical Arabic..but I can't find it anywhere [emoji]
