Leonie Löwenherz
From Muppet Wiki
The lioness Leonie Löwenherz (Leonie Lionheart in English) was featured on Sesamstrasse (the German version of Sesame Street) for a very short time somewhere around 1990, after the original set and puppets were destroyed in a fire in 1988. Just like Uli Von Bödefeld, she was most likely built by German Fabula Filmpuppen Workshop, and not the Muppet Workshop. After her short-lived Sesamstrasse career, she received her own series called Leonie Löwenherz in 1991, featuring herself, her two lion brothers Lambert and Ludwig, and a small cast of human characters. The series was a co-production from the Northgerman television (NDR) and the hessian television (HR).
Two Leonie versions existed: the first, rather slim-faced and slim-bodied puppet that appeared on Sesamstrasse, and the slightly, yet noticeably bigger version, used throughout her own show.
