Magical Beasts-Chimaera
Chapter 20
A Chimaera is a type of hybrid animal and a violent magical creature native to Greece. It is a vicious, bloodthirsty creature with a lion's head, a goat's body and a dragon's tail.
History:
Because of their ferocity, Chimaeras are classified by the Ministry of Magic as XXXXX (very dangerous), and their eggs are classified as Class A Non-Tradeable Materials.
There is only one recorded instance of a wizard killing a Chimaera, although the victor died from the exhaustion after killing it.
"Dangerous" Dai Llewellyn, the famous Caerphilly Catapults player, was killed by a Chimaera while on holiday in Greece.
In 1995, Rubeus Hagrid stated to Hermione Granger that it was difficult to get a Chimaera egg, causing Hermione to speculate that he had tried to get one, and wanted to use it as part of a lesson, while Hermione advises Hagrid better not to bring dangerous beasts to teach to the Hogwarts students, due to Dolores Umbridge's inspection.
During the Battle of Hogwarts, when Vincent Crabbe cast Fiendfyre which is dangerous magical fire, flaming Chimaeras appeared out of it.
