Another institution in my culture is that marriage doesn't really exist. We have mates that better our population and community not love.
When it comes to educating our young we tend to orient ourselves around the elders in the herd yet again. As I stated earlier my herd listens to stories and legends about our ancestry every night, this is part of how our offspring learn about our culture however they also have periodic sessions with elders to teach them to become fluent in our language and traditions at a very early age.
Religion is not really seen as a form of higher power in my world. We view the sky and the forest the only things worthy of our worship because they allow us to live and fly there.
In my culture we keep track of age through decades instead of celebrating every year. By the time a young Hippogriff turns 10 they should know our culture extremely well and be fluent in our language also by this age they should be finding mates and providing more offspring for the herd. When a Hippogriff in our herd turns 100 years old they are then considered and elder. We usually live to be around 300 years old.
My diet and my families diet consists of mostly small rodents however we can also survive on plants as well. The reason we can survive on both is because we are half eagle and half horse so we are able to eat both aspects of the diets.
The only type of ritual my kind has is our death ritual. In this ritual we give the body back to the land and bless their spirit. We thank the forest for allowing us time with this being and then we move on.
