Description
A really cool mythical beast that is from Arthurian Legends, which I am mostly certain that it came about by someone trying to explain a Giraffe. Just look for yourself!"The strange creature has the head and neck of a serpent, the body of a leopard, the haunches of a lion and the feet of a hart."
And now think about it for a second... Yeah! Sounds like a Giraffe! I am going to call it a Gigaraffe from now on!

It is fascinating to see how ancient civilizations tried to explain and misinterpreted strange creatures.
