Basilisk

The Basilisk is a giant serpent, also known as the King of Serpents. It is a magical beast that is bred by Dark Wizards. Herpo the Foul was the first to breed a Basilisk; he accomplished this by hatching a chicken egg beneath a toad which resulted in the creature known as a Basilisk.

Three-headed Dogs

Three-headed dogs are very rare magical beasts. Their great weakness is the inability to resist falling asleep to the sound of music.

Rubeus Hagrid once owned a three-headed dog named Fluffy. "They were looking straight into the eyes of a monstrous dog, a dog that filled the whole space between ceiling and floor. It had three heads. Three pairs of rolling,mad eyes; three noses, twitching and quivering in their direction; three drooling mouths, saliva hanging in slippery ropes from yellowish fangs." —Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger and Neville Longbottom encountering Fluffy
