One of Sanger's lions was so tame that it used to be taken from the cage to personate the British lion, lying at the feet of Mrs George Sanger, in the character of Britannia, in the cavalcades customary with tenting circuses when they enter a town, and which are professionally termed parades.

Fred Sanger and his colleagues developed many of the techniques still used in genomic biology to this day.
The fundamental method of 'reading' DNA using special bases called chain terminators, the use of very thin gel systems, the adaptation of efficient cloning methods to produce both DNA strands and the whole-genome shotgun were all developed by Fred and his group during the 1970s.
It was by this time clear that DNA was a linear code and although the code was being unravelled, no methods existed to read the code in even the simplest genome.
