Just as it is often said, the difference between humans is greater than the difference between humans and pigs, that is because humans are higher animals, and there are great differences between individuals.
The same applies to magical creatures; their individual differences are also very significant.
Things in books, unless they are instincts rooted deep in the bloodline, cannot be generalized.
"Is there?" Hagrid said, a little confused.
"When I raise them, I just follow what's in books, or some observations of their habits."
"Observations?"
"Yes, observations. I think sometimes, this is much more practical than what's in books." Hagrid nodded, very eager to talk.
As he spoke, he gave an example.
"For example, in my observation, the Manticore's 'that thing' just happens to match the Fire Crab's 'that thing'!"
"Which one?"
"That one!" Hagrid clapped his hands, saying with a 'surprised, aren't you' tone.
"Think about it, it's so amazing! One is a fleshy, four-limbed animal."
"Mammal."
"Oh… a familiar word, I think Celticborne mentioned it before… never mind, and the other one! Is a crab, a shelled animal. And their 'that thing'! Can actually combine perfectly!"
??
"Wait!" Howl waved his hand, clearing his throat lightly. "Is it what I'm thinking?"
"It should be what you're thinking." Hagrid said. "Isn't that normal?"
"Hagrid, I think I can give you a popular science lesson on biolo..." Howl's words trailed off, then he nodded helplessly.
"In the Wizarding World, this is indeed quite normal..."
...
After all, there was the product of Medusa combining with a Basilisk, and later various half-humans, half-humans and human hybrids...
No, no, no...
Howl shook his head, driving these terrifying images from his mind.
He knew why Hagrid could get along peacefully with these beasts so naturally. Affinity and effort were one thing, but there was another indispensable aspect...
Manticore, Ministry of Magic classification 5X.
Extremely dangerous!
He even dared to play matchmaker with such creatures, what else wouldn't he dare to do?
"Alright… I have to leave." Howl stood up and said.
"Oh, okay." Hagrid quickly stood up, hitting his head on the lamp with a clanging sound.
"You don't have to see me out, you rest." Howl quickly said.
"Oh, okay." Hagrid smiled honestly, picking up a rock cake from the plate. "Take some back with you."
"Okay… okay…"
As soon as he walked out of Hagrid's hut, he stretched and headed towards the Castle.
However, he hadn't walked far when a figure flashed past in his peripheral vision.
Following that fleeting figure, he saw it quickly disappear into the Forbidden Forest.
After having a serious talk with Hagrid just now, he realized even more deeply how dangerous the Forbidden Forest was for these Little Wizards!
Recalling what happened in the first half of the semester, a sense of indignation and doubt arose in his heart.
Soon, his footsteps disappeared into the snow.
Along with them, his figure also vanished.
Deep within the Forbidden Forest, a golden-haired girl was strolling. From the depths of the forest, some unknown creature, having discovered her presence, rustled away, disturbing the green grass and shaking off the snow that lay upon it.
Suddenly, the girl felt a strange sensation by her ear.
She raised her hand, only to touch something like a wiggling branch.
She gently held it, then opened her hand.
In her hand was a small creature with small brown eyes, about six inches tall, with three leaves on its head.
"Are you lost, little one?" Luna whispered.
