Today's tropes is the Mix and Match Critters
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MixAndMatchCritters

A common way of making monsters or fantastic creatures is to simply take existing animals and combine their parts. For instance, the Chimera (lion head, goat body, snake tail) or the Minotaur (bull head, human body). Also common is to simply take an existing animal and vary it a simple way Pegasus is a horse but with wings, hippocampi have the heads and front bodies of horses but the tails of fish, etc.

either works, whatever seems better for the specific source

some are more recognized by species (Mythological creatures especially) but some have a single clear character that's sort of the icon of the species
