Beasts in the "Schoolbooks" to attack Harry?

Well... he's already had to face Dragons, Dementors, Kappas, 
Merpeople, a Sphinx, trolls, the dreaded Acromantula, the Basilisk, 
and Blast Ended Skrewts(!) - there doesn't seem much left!

I guess there is the Chimaera, the Graphorn, the Griffin, the Kelpie, 
the Lethifold (although this isn't likely as only found (at least so 
far) in Tropical climates), the Manticore, the Nundu, the Occamy the 
Quintaped, the Runespoor (although we've already done snakes with the 
Basilisk) and the Yeti (how unlikely is that!).

Of all of them, I think the Kelpie and the Quintaped are most likely -
even if for purely geographical reasons.  Both are found in 
Scotland.  Having said that the  Acromantula was not supposed to be 
found here in the UK (thanks Hagrid!) so we can't rule anything out...

Whatever happens though, it is most likely to be tied in with the 
Voldemort resurgence, so which would be most useful to him?  (Unless 
JKR develops another interesting Hagrid subplot!).
