A creature specifically designed by ancient writers to be as physically confusing as absolutely possible. The leucrotta is described as having the hindquarters of a stag, the chest of a lion, and the completely ridiculous head of an oversized badger. Its mouth opens up all the way back to its ears, revealing a single, solid bone ridge instead of individual teeth. It is practically a junkyard dog assembled purely from the completely leftover parts of cooler, more cohesive beasts.
