Rampant is a word used in heraldry, the system of rules used to construct coats of arms.
When a lion appears on a flag or a shield, it can be in many different positions or 'attitudes' - lying down, walking, sleeping etc.
A lion rampant is standing up on its hind (back) legs with its mouth wide open to make a loud roar, and its paws raised to strike.
See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion_(heraldry) for pictures and names of this and the other attitudes.

I think it is hind leg not hint leg. hind leg means the back limb of an animal.
