'Easily offended, Hippogriffs are. Don't never insult one, 'cause it might be the last thing yeh do.'-Hagrid-Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
Buckbeak is, of course, the most renowned of these, first appearing in the series as one of Hagrid's creatures for the Year 3 Care of Magical Creatures class, and later being used to help Sirius Black escape, and living with him for a while after that.
