Or never took Care of Magical Creatures.  He probably had a copy of 
Fantastic Beasts (seems to be required reading for DADA nowadays), but 
I can just see him skipping over all the boring creatures like 
Phoenixes and Unicorns and going right to the deadly ones, not for 
Hagrid's charming reasons, but in order to amuse himself imagining 
tortures like siccing a Lethifold on a Muggle.
