2 What amazing animals are there in this book
《山海经》中记载了许多奇异的动物，以下是一些较为知名的异兽：
蠃鱼：长着鱼的身子却有鸟的翅膀，发出的声音像鸳鸯鸟鸣叫，在哪个地方出现那里就会有水灾。
天狗：形状像野猫却是白脑袋，名称是天狗，它发出的叫声与“榴榴”的读音相似，人饲养它可以辟凶邪之气。
狰：形状像赤豹，长着五条尾巴和一只角，发出的声音如同敲击石头的响声。
肥遗：一种禽鸟，形状像一般的鹌鹑鸟，是黄身子而红嘴巴，人吃了它的肉就能治愈麻疯病，还能杀死体内寄生虫。另有一种说法，肥遗是怪蛇，一旦出现便预示将有大范围的旱灾。
凤凰：形状像普通的鸡，全身上下是五彩羽毛，吃喝很自然从容，常常是自各儿边唱边舞，一出现天下就会太平。
蛊雕：似鸟非鸟的食人怪兽，样子像雕，头上长角，叫声像婴儿的哭啼声，吃人。
九尾狐：形状像狐狸却长着九条尾巴，吼叫的声音与婴儿啼哭相似，能吞食人；吃了它的肉就能使人不中妖邪毒气。
旋龟：样子与普通的乌龟类似，但颜色为红黑，长着鸟的头、毒蛇的尾巴。据说它的叫声像剖开的木头的声音，将其佩带在身上，耳不聋，还可以治疗足底的老茧。
狌狌：张着一对白色的耳朵，能爬着走，也可以直立行走，长得像猕猴，也有可能就是现在的猩猩。传说狌狌通晓过去，但是却无法知道未来的事情。
鹿蜀：生活在杻阳山，样子像马，头部白色，身上长着老虎的斑纹，长有一条红色的尾巴，鸣叫的时候就像人们在唱民歌，佩戴它的皮毛可以使子孙繁衍。
鸾鸟：又称玄鸟、青鸟，有五彩纹，见则天下安宁，是春神的使者、吉祥如意的象征。
朱厌：身形像猿猴，白头红脚，传说这种野兽一出现，天下就会发生大战争。
比翼鸟：此鸟仅一目一翼，雌雄须并翼飞行，故常比喻恩爱夫妻，亦比喻情深谊厚、形影不离的朋友。
狡：整体像狗，身上有豹纹，一对角像牛角，叫声如犬吠。
毕方：形状像鹤，只有一只脚，青色的羽毛之上有红色的斑纹，长着白色的嘴巴。
冉遗鱼：长着鱼身、蛇头，还有六只脚，眼睛形状如同马的耳朵，吃了这种鱼可以使人不患梦魇症，还可以防御凶灾。
此外，《山海经》中还记载了青龙、白虎、玄武、朱雀等神兽，以及许多其他形状各异、能力奇特的异兽。这些异兽不仅是古代人们想象力的结晶，也是中国传统文化中不可或缺的一部分。
