    Time for some more clues I guess -

    3 consecutive words giving an anagram for an equatorial country

    Close lamby, I did say it was an anagram of 3 words within the original clue, can't see a 'd' in there

    Correct -

    Singapore (or more correctly Singapura) translates into English as 'Lion Country', though Lions were never actually
    indigenous to the Country, hence the 'possibly?'

    pig ears on = Singapore = a lion
