WEDNESDAY BLOGGING CHALLENGE | MYTHOLOGICAL CREATURE I’D LIKE TO HAVE AS A PET

I don’t know much about mythological creatures if I’m being totally honest, so I definitely Googled this one. It was either that or defer to my 5-year-old, who would definitely say unicorn, and as a backup, UNICORN. Luckily there are lots, including this guy who I’d never even heard of: the Enfield.

 

 

This description of it says: “The creature has the head of a fox, eagle’s talons for forelegs, the chest of a greyhound, the body of a lion, and the tail of a wolf… the enfield, being compounded of the fox, eagle, and wolf, indicated that he, by whom it was borne, was reputed to possess the subtlety and cunning of the first named beast; the magnanimity and fortitude, with the honour, labor, industry, and diligence, in great manners, of the eagle; and the fierceness of the wolf.”

I mostly like it because I’ve always wanted a pet fox. Though I imagine it’d be murder on the furniture.

What about you guys? Which creature did you choose this week? Have any of you heard of the Enfield before?
