Show answer
Answer: Thursday.
If today is Thursday: The lion’s statement “Yesterday I was lying” is true because the lion lied on Wednesday. The unicorn’s statement “So was I” is false because the unicorn was truthful yesterday (Wednesday) but is lying today (Thursday). This satisfies the conditions for both the lion and the unicorn.
