Hybrid Animals You Probably Have Never Heard Of

Mermaid

Mermaids have long captivated citizens due to their unusual allure. We can track myths of half-human, half-fish creatures back to Babylon. Merpeople can also be found in Syria, Polynesia, and Greek mythology. If some societies portrayed mermaids as beautiful and loving (in Irish folklore, mermaids might transform into human form and marry humans), others described them as cruel and capable of hastening and creating a disaster.

Minotaur

According to Greek myths, the Minotaur was the son of the Goddess of Crete and a powerful bull who came from the sea. The Minotaur had a human body as well as a bull’s head and tail. King Minos was so outraged by this creation that he constructed the Labyrinth, a complicated maze intended to trap him.
