"The kirre is one of the more vicious animals of the forests and jungles of Athas." It resembles an 8 foot long tiger with 8 clawed legs, a pair of large horns, and a barbed tail. In combat it attacks 7 times: twice with front claws, bite, gore with horns, twice with secondary claws, and stab with tail (1-4/1-4/1-6/1-8/1-4/1-4/1-6). It also has natural psionic abilities, like many creatures of Athas. (AD&D 2nd ed Monstrous Manual, 1993)
Unsigned, but several elements like pose and shading resemble Dave Simons' work. He was credited in this book for "normal animals, almost normal animals, and squishy things." His usual signature is missing throughout the book.
