Chimaera..
Yes, Bellerophon was a hero. He defeated many monsters including the Chimera.
The young corinthian prince Bellerophon killed the Chimera, a beast with a head of a lion, the horns of a goat and a tail of a snake....
Usually the monster he defeated; the Chimeraor the winged Pegasus.
It is mentioned by Homer that Bellerophon added a lump of lead to his spear that would melt when exposed to the beast's fiery breath. It did, and thus landed the killing blow.

Bellerophon defeated the Chimera by using a combination of his skill and the aid of the winged horse Pegasus. He rode Pegasus into the air to avoid the Chimera's fiery breath and launched arrows at the creature from a safe distance. Additionally, he utilized a lead-tipped arrow, which melted upon contact with the Chimera's flames, ultimately allowing him to strike the beast fatally. This strategic advantage and his divine companion were key to his victory.
NO, they were not. Perseus came before Bellerophon because when Perseus beheaded Medusa, Pegasus sprang from her neck. Bellerophon was the first to tame Pegasus, and with it he defeated the chimera. Perseus is, as far as I know, the only Greek hero to have a "happy ending," with a wife and family. Bellerophon, however, died a tragic death when he tried to fly Pegasus up to Olympus, because he felt he deserved to be a God. Pegasus "bucked," for lack of a better word, him off and Bellerophon fell to his death. Hence, the two are different people.
