classical Pegasus "these always seem to mostly stay the same"

I loved the name Bunyip I thought it sounded really cute until I read it's favorite food was women.

The statuette of the satyr would make a lovely hat stand.

Cynocephalus
"my source is different from the text source as what I found described a dog headed monkey not a dog headed man"

Okay werewolf was next in the text version "however" the werewolf is only a hybrid shape in movies and books. the werewolf of legend looked exactly like a wolf and was a human that took the form of a wolf, so there are no classic images of a man-wolf.

couldn't find any old art of a Tikbalang so this will have to do
