This post is my response to Thought Provocation Prompts for August #31 by Ruby Noir 😈.

31. Let’s end on a fun note, shall we?
Since we did a prompt on hybrid animals this month — create your own.
This must be a cross between two different species of animal. They can be real animals that are not at all related to each other, one can be mythological, both can be mythological — it’s totally up to you but they must be two different species.
Give your hybrid animal a name (As in what the new species is called, not like — “this is Charlie…”, though if you’d also like to give the animal a name you can — but the new species as a whole must have a term to call it) and describe what features of the two animals you used to create your hybrid would be present. For example, if you cross a goat with an eagle can it climb, fly, or both? What would be the benefits to this new breed? What would be the dangers? And would you keep it as a pet? HAVE FUN and BE CREATIVE!
