I think the Quintiped(sp?) in the Beast book is going to be in a book, maybe the seventh one.  Why do I think this?  Because it's just randomly there, and it's even noted it's ONLY found on an island where no one goes.

Like the Thestrals, why put in an animal that you can't even see?  Simple:  You're going to be able to see it.  The Thestrals were kept out of sight, only to be revealed.  The quitipeds are kept out of sight geographically and will be brought into sight.

Why do I say seventh book?  Well forgive me if I'm wrong but the TriWizard tornament does take place every three years, does it not?  Or have I gotton confused?
