The Manticore is a Persian legendary creature similar to the Egyptian sphinx. Manticore was also named as a '' man-eater''. It has the body of a lion, a human head with rows of sharp teeth, sometimes bat-like wings, and a trumpet-like voice. Other aspects of the creature vary from story to story.

It may be horned, winged, or both. The tail is that of either a dragon or a scorpion, and it may shoot venomous spines to either paralyze or kill its victims. It devours its prey whole and leaves no clothes, bones, or possessions of the prey behind.

I hope it was interesting)
