Beast Legends was a 2010 canadian documentary miniseries airing on both The History Channel and Syfy. It follows a team of both scientists and artists as they travel the world and study creatures of myth to recreate them for short films at the end of each episode, looking at real animals to help with it.

comment
Artistic License – Ornithology: The Monster Bird episode depicts the giant bird as one that launches quadrupedally like a pterosaur. Aside from the fact that it has too many fingers (4 instead of 3), no real bird has a hand remotely appropriate for such a launch. Although it's technically not a real bird, that is no excuse.

Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti: In the same ballpark as them is the Vietmanese Wildman as an episode subject.

Kraken and Leviathan: The episode on the Kraken features it incorporating the nastiest features of the Giant Octopus, Giant Squid and Colossal Squid, scaled up to 200ft long from the tip of its head to outstretch tentacles, which take up half the body length them selves.

comment
Our Dragons Are Different: The dragon they make (based off the polish myth of the Wawel Dragon) has skin membranes a la a flying squirrel (or the minor Godzilla kaiju Varan) and glides since wings would make it too big for the forest where it lives, and uses bio-electric sparks to produce bursts of flame.

Our Gryphons Are Different: Its the subject of one episode, not too different from most depictions. The film sequence depicts it travelling to Ulaanbaatar to get food for its soon to hatch eggs and some other stuff, eating a person and taking a motorcycle.
