      In your picture the Minotaur has hooves.

      Wikipedia:

      a mythical creature portrayed during classical antiquity with the head and tail of a bull and the body of a man

      You either have to accept (by your definition) a Hoove or by wikipedia at least a Tail. Shown in many wiki pictures.

      (Judged by the second picture, apparently also a very tiny dick)

      I think it’s worth noting that Pegasus and Cerberus are proper names of individual creatures, not species.

          Don’t think so, which is probably why they are sometimes used as common nouns even though they’re technically proper nouns.

      The Minotaur was more about being effective at killing people in a maze. If he was good at mazes, he probably would have left.

    I would say the image OP meant a centaur and not a minotaur. But then the other way around would be a hippocampus! Your browser does not support playing HTML5 video. You can download a copy of the video file instead. Here is a description of the content: hippocampus

      No they’re saying the human half of a minotaur (from the waist down) and the human half of a merfolk (from the waist up).

      Centaurs don’t have horse heads, so they can’t make a water horse.

        The issue is that the bottom half of a minotaur is just the hind quarters of a bull. But you are right that centaurs miss the horse head too

          The Minotaur just had a bull’s head, and sometimes a tail. Everything else was human. We usually imagine the shoulders as broad and bull-like too but the Greeks just went with bull’s head (and sometimes tail, but just the tail, like when anime furries make cat girls. Yes I said it)

      Fish and bulls*.

      The horse one is Centaur, and that has the same human half as mermaids. Maybe it would be able to make a being with the torso of a man, front legs of a horse and a mermaid tail sticking out the back.

    The only human part of a minotaur is the arms/torso, right? He still will have hooves and a tail.

      Like many people in this thread, you’re thinking of a centaur.

      Edit: I stand corrected. It seems a Minotaur is not a simple top-half/bottom-half split. It’s more like the body and arms of a human, with the head, tail, and feet of a bull.

        No, I do not. Did you google-image centaur and minotaur? Because the results are clear there. What is it you think coming out of his ass?

        Wikipedia says:

        a mythical creature portrayed during classical antiquity with the head and tail of a bull and the body of a man

        Or use google-images. Judged by these pictures 95% even have hooves.

        Right. The image is about a minotaur, though, and the OP said the “other way around” is just a seahorse. The other way around would basically be a fish with a bull’s head and human arms. Not very seahorse-like.
