Mandy here:
I have the idea that all petronus' are in animal form, something like 
the American Indian Animal Spirit Guides.  

If that is so, Bellatrix's patronus cannot be an Amazon who were a 
race of human female warriors.  Bellatrix's petronus would be a 
Hyena. 

Hyena's are truly fierce predators and scavangers who live in 
matriarchal societies where the males are significantly smaller than 
the females.  They also laugh or scream in place of a roar.  Sounds 
like Bella to me.

Cheers Mandy
