Well, the Chimera was a three headed monster, Head of a lion, Goat head on it's back, and it's tail was a snake. It breathed fire, and the only way it could be defeated was for the hero Bellerophon, to make the beast swallow lead, which melted in it's stomach, and killed it. Pegasus helped him. The Chimera was also the daughter of Typhon and Echidna, the mother and father of all monsters.
