odditiesoflife: The Griffin - King of All Creatures The Griffin is a legendary creature with the body, tail, and back legs of a lion, combined with the head, wings, and front feet of an eagle. Since the lion was considered the king of the beasts and the eagle, the king of the birds, the griffin was thought to be “king of all creatures”. Because they are especially powerful and majestic, griffins are known for guarding treasure and priceless possessions. Pretty cool creatures. -- source link
