Alligle
A hybrid of Alligator + Eagle

Its powerful hind limbs end in webbed feet, suitable for both swimming and perching. The front limbs are transformed into strong, feathered wings, allowing for impressive aerial maneuvers. The head features a sharp, hooked beak and keen, piercing eyes that provide exceptional vision. Its long, muscular tail aids in balance during flight and propulsion in water, making it a versatile predator.
