You can mash together animals or make up a totally new one.
And we'll just try and imagine what that would look like.

- Okay.
- [Boy] And put the shell like behind it to prove--
- Oh, there's a shell on the back
and the rest of it is fuzzy?

with having a tutu.

- He has the body of a horse, it can be flying.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
- So it's got wings as well?
- Yeah. It's kinda like an angel slash unicorn slash dragon.

so that they don't drag the tail.
