One of the best things about the world JK Rowling created in the Harry Potter series is the vast variety of magical creatures. I love how she blended real-life animals with fantastical beasts from mythology and of her own creation. The result is a fictional fauna that is both complex and exciting... The series would not have been the same without these notable creatures.
1. The Phoenix
2. Doxies
3. Grindylows
4. Abraxus
5. Flesh-eating Slugs
6. The garden gnome
7. Thestrals
8. Acromantulas
9. Blast-ended Skrewt
10. Owls
11. The Hippogriff
12. Merpeople
13. Cornish Pixies
14. Pigmy Puffs
15. Unicorn
16. Bowtruckle
17. Dragons
18. Cats
19. Rats
20. Basilisk
21. Warewolf
Which ones did I miss?
Love the images! Would the Boggart count as a creature? And how would you picture yours? :-)
ReplyDeleteNot bad, not bad...
ReplyDeleteBut, let's not forget our flora brethren:
Whomping Willow, Mandrake...
And how, by the grace of Dumbledore, can you forget to include the Goblins? GOBLINS, I SAY!!!
that is my picture of the bowtruckle!! I sent it in to a contest on mugglenet once, that's too funny. Well I'm happy it's here, I had it saved on my computer, but it crashed and I no longer have it.
