Birds, bull, cattle, horse, sheep, and the Sphinx are the beasts referenced in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Laius lets his charioteer and horses jostle Oedipus at an intersection. The Corinthian and Theban shepherds pasture their sheep outside Thebes. The Sphinx terrorizes Thebes until defeated by Oedipus.
