Noah's Ark Dream

Ok not exactly a Noah's Ark dream, but there were several animals in last night's dream. It is entirely possible it is related to the watching of the Lion King yesterday but here goes...

I was with this guy and we were shopping. We were looking at these little stone carvings of animals. He was looking for a bear and found it but I (I think it was me) dropped it. So we were crawling on the ground and there were all these other little stone carvings of animals on the ground too and we couldn't find his bear. I found an alligator, a bird, a turtle, I think a dolphin or whale, a dragon fly and I want to say a Lion (but I could be thinking that based on the aformentioned Lion King sighting).

According to Dreammoods...

Stone: To see stones in your dream, symbolizes strength, unity, and unyielding beliefs. Consider the common phrase "etched in stone" which suggest permanence and unchanging attitudes. Some stones also carry sacred and magical meanings. Alternatively, stones may relate to issues of moral judgment and/or guilt.

I couldn't find a description for charm or little carved thing. So we'll go with the animals

Bear: Alternatively, bears symbolize the cycle of life and death and renewal. It may signal of period of introspection and thinking. The dream may also be a pun on "bare". Perhaps you need to bare your soul and let everything out into the open.

Alligator: To see an alligator in your dream, symbolizes treachery, deceit, and hidden instincts. It may be a signal for you to take a new perspective on a situation. It may also represent your ability to move between the material world of waking life and the emotional, repressed world of the unconscious. Alternatively, the alligator represents healing powers and qualities.

Bird: To dream of a chirping and/or flying birds, represents joy, harmony, ecstasy, balance, and love. It denotes a sunny outlook in life. You will experience spiritual freedom and psychological liberation. It is almost as if a weight has been lifted off your shoulders.

Dolphin: To see a dolphin in your dream, symbolizes spiritual guidance, your intellect, mental attributes and emotional trust. Utilize your mind to its capacity and you will move upward in life. Alternatively, it suggests that a line of communication has been established between the conscious and unconscious aspects of yourself. Dolphins represent your willingness and ability to explore and navigate through your emotions.

Lion: To see a lion in your dream, symbolizes great strength, aggression and power. You will overcome your emotions and/or difficulties. As king of the jungle, the lion also represents royalty, leadership, pride and dominion. You have much influence over others. You may also need to exercise restraint in your own personal and social life.

Turtle: To see turtles in your dream, suggests that you will make slow but steady progress. You need to slow down and pace yourself. Alternatively, it indicates that you are sheltering yourself from the realities of life.

Whale: To see a whale in your dream, represents your intuition and awareness. You are in tuned to your sense of spirituality. Alternatively, it indicates a relationship or business project that is too enormous to handle.

Dragonfly: To see a dragonfly in your dream, symbolizes changes. It may also indicate that something in our life may not not appear as it seems.

Anyone care to take a stab at what this all means?

First, I have a definition to add:
Crawling To dream that you are crawling, indicates that you are approaching your goals with careful forethought and preparation. Alternatively, you may be lowering yourself and your standards. You may be doing less than your best.
