I'm going to base this on the owl bear because I feel like it.

so my now made up rule is for animals merged like this the first animal is the modifier and the second is the base.

therefore it is a chicken with a buffalo look, not a buffalo with a chicken look.

real life reference: a whale shark is a shark that looks like a whale, not a whale that looks like a shark

I have no rational argument, but it feels like buffalo chicken is the top one. The bottom is a chicken buffalo.

The first, obviously. Where else would buffalo wings come from?

I personally feel like it's the bottom. Unfortunate for us, but it is what it is.

Gotta be the first one. Because as we all know, buffalos have wild wings! Thats why they call it buffalo wild wings! The second one doesn't have ANY wings, much less wild ones!

Come back when the second one develops some wild wings!

That's a bison chicken

Good ol' 100 duck sized horses Vs horse sized duck

Jesus I hope it’s the first one.

Top one. Dare I say obviously the top one.

I prefer the top one

Asking the REAL questions!

Hopefully the Top one

Bottom one would be nightmare fuel as it enacts t-rex ancestor rage on us all
