<div>A '''gryphon''' (also spelt in numerous other ways) is a [[mythical creature]]. Traditionally, it is a [[quadruped]]al combination of an [[eagle]] and a [[lion]]. However, many different [[bird]]-[[mammal]] combinations are recognised in the [[Furry fandom]], as well as more unusual variations.<br />
<br />
==Anatomy==<br />
<br />
A typical gryphon has the head, fore half, front legs, and wings of a bird, and the hind legs and rear half of a mammal. The wings are attached at the shoulders, and typically fold against the gryphon's back or sides when not in use. The avian and mammalian parts are scaled to compatible proportions.<br />
<br />
Gryphon tails often lie on the boundary between bird and mammal, and are subject to interpretation. Different variations include:<br />
<br />
* Fully mammalian tail<br />
* Mammalian-avian hybrid tail (generally a mammalian tail ending in a fan of feathers)<br />
* Two tails, avian and mammalian</div>62.137.150.162
