The Re'em was a magical beast native to the wilds of North America and the Far East. The Re'em was extremely rare, resembling giant Ox with a golden hide. Re'em blood gave immense strength to the drinker for a limited time. However, since demand far exceeded supply, and obtaining the blood in the first place was extremely difficult, it could rarely be found in the open market.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
- In the Spanish version of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, "Re'em" is translated as "Uro" (Spanish for "aurochs").
- The creature Re'em is often described as a form of unicorn or giant horse whose blood was rare. The beast and its blood are mentioned in the Bible.[2]
