A Griffin is part eagle part lion.
The Sphynx was an Egyptian mythological creature that was part man part lion. The Manticore would also fit that description, with the body of a lion and the face of a man.

Mythical bird of prey?
The winged lion is a Venetian symbol of royalty. The closest match I can find is the griffin or griffon - a mythical creature that is part eagle, part lion. However, it would be a lion with wings *and* the head of an eagle. It's a manticore. They can have wings, bat wings or bird wings. They have scorpion or dragon tail. Often depicted with human face. In some cases they are called wyverns, but this is a mistake in nominclature as wyverns are members of the dragon family.Probably the sphinx. It has the body of a lion, the face of a woman, wings, and a penchant for telling riddles.
What kind of creature is part Cow part Pig part Goat part Sheep and part Deer?
There is no creature. I searched & searched and couldn't find one like this. You have probably mixed up 2 creatures. I heard a story about a creature called Drybones made of the remains of a hog, the tail of a raccoon, the eyes of an owl, and the hands of a bear. It was as tall as a tree and could speak. But I think that creature may fall under chimera, which usually refers to any mixture of animals, but most often to one that has the wings of a bat, the body of a lion, and the tail of a scorpion, or a larger, dragon-like creature with the heads of a lion, a goat, and a snake.
What is a half man half goat creature called?
Here are several: Centaur: half-man half-horse. Minotaur: from Greek mythology. Part man, part bull. Harpie: part woman, part bird. Merman/Mermaid: part human, part fish. Werewolves (werecreatures in general): people that transform into wolves or other animals. Nagas:(Indian) part man, part snake. Lamia: part woman, part goat. Satyr: part man, part goat. In the Bible: Part-human creatures are mentioned in dreams/visions in Daniel 7v4 and Revelation 4v7. A creature that is part one thing and part something else is pretty much the dictionary definition of a MONSTER. Monsters are either: 1. part man and part beast (such as centaurs, minotaurs and the like) 2. part one beast and part other beast (such as dragons, chimerae, etc.)
