John, living in the time of Rome, sees the beast as a mix of the ones of Daniel but lists them in backwards order.
This is the culmination as a mix of this entity as it held to many elements of the 4 nations it came out of.
(Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome)
(This Little Horn / Beast entity would rise up from the ashes of the 4 nations.)
Daniel saw.....
And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.
And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
Daniel 7:3- 7
John saw.....
And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out
of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard,
and his feet were as the feet of a bear,
and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
Revelation 13:1,2

Daniel was looking forward in time
....from Babylon.
John was looking backward in time
....from Rome.
BOTH were seeing the same entity.(This Little Horn / Beast entity would rise up from the ashes of the 4 nations.)
