A question! And a good one to ask, too. Atticus thought for a moment before responding. "I haven't seen anything that says you can't curtsy," he answered. "However, I'd recommend that you still bow, just to be on the safe side." Plus, hippogriffs couldn't curtsy, whereas they could bow. No need to do something that they couldn't do, yes?
That was good logic, Atticus would give the boy that. "They do eat small mammals and insects, correct, but they don't eat much vegetation since they're carnivorous creatures."
Atticus nodded at each of the correct answers. It was good to see that most knew this much about hippogriffs. He figured most of them would know the answer to the next question too. "Excellent job, all of you. A hippogriff's diet generally consists of things like birds, small animals such as ferrets and rats, and insects.
"Now, I have one more question before I call the hippogriff herd. If you owned a hippogriff, what would you be required by law to do everyday?"
Zhenya raised her hand, "It is required by law that if you own a Hippogriff you must perform a Disillusionment charm on them every day which is to protect it, as well as the muggles from coming into contact with eachother and to prevent any harm, because muggles would not know what the creature was, or how to approach it," she said.
