Goose + Scorpion

I don't know what it would be called, but I'd release a pillowcase them into the HVAC system of ICE offices.

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 5 points 2 days ago

Sounds like the most dangerous creature known to man.

Wait imagine a goose hippo

Bat-dog, because I was making jokes about a vampire dog being called a drachuahua earlier today. And while looking for art of a bat-dog I found out that the Buettikofer's epauletted bat is pretty damn close already.

Flying squirrel top half with an ostrich butt and legs

[–] TheLepidopterists@hexbear.net 11 points 2 days ago

Favorite bird is a barn owl and favorite land animal is a binturong.

So I guess the barnturong.

[–] Gorillatactics@hexbear.net 11 points 2 days ago

Magpie, Giraffe. The hind feet never leave the ground no matter how hard he flaps his wings

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Hercules beetle and elephant

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That's just a flying rhino

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I was imagining there would be no change in size so it would be a very large creature flying by very small wings

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago

Lmao amazing

I don't remember this one, but I assume the joke is owlbears. But also, owls are terrifying and so are bears, so that one's solid for me!

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago

Owls will fuck you up have you seen their claws?

[–] hexthismess@hexbear.net 8 points 2 days ago

Peregrine falcon and cheetah for the fastest animal alive

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago

Magpie and ferret

[–] codexarcanum@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 days ago

Ferrets and Parrots! Talking colorful furry quetzalcoatls!

I call them... Fperrets.

[–] spudnik@hexbear.net 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

A particularly dirty owl and a large hog who has recently soiled himself in a very specific fashion. I'm sorry that this is instantly the first thing I thought of, but this place has destroyed my brain.

Real answer: dragon fly and kangaroo mouse if there is anyway to make that work

[–] SmokinStalin@hexbear.net 8 points 2 days ago

Parakeet and elephant.

[–] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago

Moth and polar bear to make accidentally leaving a light on into an exciting adventure.

[–] Babs@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago

kangaroobatross

[–] Owl@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago

The world isn't dangerous enough. Dragonfly and poison dart frog.

A goose and a boa constrictor. If a proper griffon bodyplan is still required, parrot and squirrel.

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago

bat and penguin out of sheer contrarianism

[–] Lyudmila@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago

Goose + opossum

Turkey and frog.

[–] Lavender@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago

Mouse and hummingbird, assuming it could get the necessary calories. It would be like a little pixie.

[–] Carl@hexbear.net 4 points 2 days ago

kiwi + dog

I just learned that kiwis are the perfect size for cuddling so hopefully their dog half will make them into excellent pets.

[–] Bruja@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago

Bat-toad can fly, hop, swim.

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago

An owl finch and a spiny bush viper. That way I could have tiny ghost-faced dragons flying around in my backyard. The color/pattern of the scales would match the bird part.

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago

Inca Tern and a Tuxedo Cat

[–] Boynomoder@hexbear.net 5 points 2 days ago

Seagull Bear
