What a trooper this one was in his arms. It seemed to be just about any little creature Javier held in his hands reminded him of when he first held Lala and his youngest son, Curtis. The Griffin was still sucking away at the meaty drink in the bottle. It looked like he did give it a little too much. Oh well. Better to overfeed than underfeed in his mind. Occasionally the Professor looked up to see the others interactions. Seem to be so far, so good right now.

'Cause now he thought about it... that was potentially a thing. Maybe he'd look into it later.
What a great question, "
They're a hybrid of both. So one could argue they're more of a mammal with the exceptional eyesight and intelligence a bird creature typically has." However, "
A lot of magical creatures do face this predicament which helped invoke the development on the official classification for Magical Creatures. Adult Griffins are classified as Beasts officially with the XXXX rating after careful deliberation." He could go more into it, if there looked to be enough interest from the others.
