The Snallygaster is a part-reptile, part-bird beast in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
About[]
Snallygasters are part-bird and part-reptile. They have been mistaken for dragons but are now understood to be a distant relative of the Occamy. They do not breathe fire. They have fangs of serrated steel to slice through prey and a bullet-proof hide. They have a curious nature.[1]
History[]
These creatures have frequently been endangering the International Statute of Secrecy because they are naturally curious. They have often appeared in Muggle newspapers, giving it the same level of publicity the Loch Ness Monster has. In 1949, the Snallygaster Protection League was formed and permanently stationed in Maryland to Obliviate the Muggles that witness one.[1]
