the magical world of Harry Potter continues to expand and this time through “Fantastic Beasts: Dumbledore’s Secrets”. The tape that has preview functions at midnight on April 14 will show us the confrontation between Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald.
In this new spin-off franchise written by JK Rowling we have as protagonist newt scamander, a magizoologist expelled from Hogwarts, but who will end up writing one of the most important textbooks of the school of witchcraft and wizardry. His mission is to collect all kinds of magical creatures and educate other wizards to understand the importance of these fantastic beasts.
In that sense, we show you a basic guide so that you can recognize them and know what to do if you come across one of them.

billywig
The billywig it’s a magic bug native to Australia and is classified as XXX by the British Ministry of Magic, meaning they shouldn’t be a problem for competent wizards. It is about 1.27 cm long, it is an intense sapphire blue color and on the top of its head it has wings that allow it to fly. Due to how fast he is, not even Muggles, wizards or witches notice his stings. The excess of these can cause the victim to float for days.
Its stingers are supposedly an ingredient in Fizzing Whizzbees wizard candy. (Fried Witches).

niffler
The niffler or Niffler It is a small, furry platypus-like creature with a long, thin snout. And without a doubt it is the best known by the spectators, since it had a great protagonism in the first installment of “Fantastic beasts and where to find them”.
It should be noted that they are very attracted to gold and shiny things, which makes them wonderful treasure hunters. As a general rule, they are gentle and affectionate creatures, but they can get a little aggressive (and even bite) if they become obsessed with searching for something.

Nundu
A nundu It is a gigantic leopard-like mammal, native to East Africa. It is considered the most dangerous creature in the world, since it has its large size and moves stealthily. He is extremely difficult to break and has never been mastered by fewer than 100 mages working together. It obtains the classification of XXXXX, which describes it as a murderous species of sorcerers and impossible to train or tame.
Their breath is toxic, capable of causing diseases so virulent that they can wipe out entire populations. However, Newt’s nundu appears to be docile, which is only explained by the magizoologist’s unparalleled ability to tame dangerous beasts.
