Memory:Hippogriff

A truly bizarre creature. The hippogriff has the body of a horse, but an eagle's head, wings, and talons for front legs. Whether a natural creature, or something created in a mad wizard's lair, it is a threat to the unwary. One thing is known for sure about this creature: when prepared properly, it makes an excellent main course. A weird mixture of hawk, lion, serpent and horse, you don't really know what this beast actually is. Since it has inherited the weapons of each of the animals that contributed to its form, you'll have to fend off a sharp beak, rending claws, kicking hooves and a lashing tail.
