  HPL: Buckbeak
Buckbeak is a grey hippogriff which was one of the group of the creatures Hagrid brought to his first Care of Magical Creatures lesson with the third year students in the fall of 1993 [Y13].
Appeals on Buckbeak's behalf failed and Hagrid was forced to allow the Committee, led by the executioner, Walden MacNair, to behead the hippogriff.
As a precaution, Buckbeak's name was changed to Witherwings, although Dumbledore said that it was unlikely that anyone at the Ministry would remember that this was the hippogriff they had attempted to execute three years before.
