Hippogriffs are very proud and if insulted they will attack. Now hippogriffs have attacked before and sometimes it wasn’t their fault. So if you are having a lesson about hippogriffs or are at a petting thing or something listen to their very instructions. If confronted with a hippogriff in the wild you must stay very still. Maintain eye contact and let the hippogriff move first. Bow politely. If the hippogriff looks agitated then slowly back away.
