Care of Magical Creatures Homework


I did the homework, except I can't seem to move the picture. So I'll start by describing what I picked to use in Care of Magical Creatures.

1. Raw meat to attract Thestrals.
2. Wood lice (in the glass bowl) to appease Bowtruckles.
3. A neck band to protect against vampire bats.
4. Binoculars to study creatures from afar that I wouldn't want to study up close.
5. A tank to study freshly caught Grindylows and Plimpies.

A house elf as wrinkly skin and has very large tennis ball eyes. It has a large nose, but like humans, they differ from elf to elf. It normally wears something like a household item, like Dobby's pillow case and Winky's tea towel.

Kreacher is the house elf of the Black Family.

Hermione is making hats for the house elfs.

You free a house elf by giving it clothes.

S.P.E.W. stands for The Society of the Promotion of Elfish Welfare
