ACCORDING TO GREEK LEGEND, THE CHIMERA WAS A TERRIBLE monster with a lion’s head, a goat’s body, and a dragon’s tail. Strange deep-sea fish, called chimeras, also look as if their bodies have been assembled from the parts of other creatures. They have large heads with staring eyes like bushbabies, and buck teeth like rabbits. Their bodies end in long, thin tails like rats’ tails.
