I first heard about this creature (though i have yet to find more than a couple brief refernces to it) From my great Grandfather before he died. He was originally from the Highlands of Scotland and would tell us many stories about dragons, the Loch Ness monster and other creatures. I recall him telling about a cynogriffon a couple times but i didnt post what i couldnt remember him saying clearly. I knew it was Celtic or Nordic in orgin but i never new about the Native American part of it until I ran into a Blackfoot shaman who told me that they had a similar legend. Im looking everywhere I can think of to find a concrete source of this creature but I havent had much luck yet. If anyone finds anything please post it here and Ill get to it ASAP. Thank you

This article seems to have modern pop-culture mixed so thoroughly into it and unseparated from the mythological roots that I can't even tell if this creature has a tradition or if it's a modern creation of fantasy writers or the game industry. I know that some of the aspects of griffons the author has mentioned are of modern origins, and so it makes me doubt the credibility of the entire article, because the writer draws no distinction.
