Various people described Behemoth as a rhinoceros, buffalo or a hippopotamus. Some even believe that he is a species which doesn't exist anymore.
Urbain Brandier wrote down that the Behemoth is a demon, while Delancre thinks the Behemoth is a brute-animal, which can disguise into other animals. Wierus believes that Behemoth could be Satan himself. It's also noted that Rabbis creates Behemoth a roast on the festival, because Behemoth can eat a lot.
