Best Answer

Thestrals are like the slightly darker (and much more gentle) version of a pegasus. They are roughly horses, but they have wings and can fly. Thestrals are said to be very clever at finding where their rider wants to go, even without specific instructions! Thestrals are considered dark creatures by many because of the negative conotations attached to them. (People think it's evil that the only way to see them is after having watched a person die first!) In the movies, their wings are leathery and they have a little bit of a thin, dragonish look to them, but still are quite beautiful.

The elder wand is a 15 inch wand crafted by Death himself.

What is Malfoy's wand made of?

The wand that Voldemort (Tom Marvolo Riddle) uses is made of Yew, and is 13 1/2 inches long. Inside is a single Phoenix tail feather from Dumbldore's Phoenix named Fawkes. Harry Potter's wand also has a single Phoenix feather from Fawkes, that is why Voldemort and Harry have a connection when there spells collide (as seen on Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire).

Why didn't J.K. Rowling mention in the book that the elder wand's core is a thestral?

One could only as J.K. Rowling that to get a satisfactory answer. My guess is that it was never really important to the story line. EG - Harry could not kill Voldemort without the core of the wand being thestral. Not true. It just was never that important as far as the plot goes.

What pull the carriages to hogwarts?

The animals that pull the carriages to Hogwarts are called Thestrals. However, you do not realize that they are even there until the fifth book, because you cannot see a Thestral unless you have seen someone die, and Harry Potter saw Cedric Diggory die in the fourth book (even though his parents died in his presence when he was a baby, he was too young to comprehend death).
