Some kind of wolf ?
Pretty much all mythological creatures don't actually exist (otherwise they wouldn't be mythological) so you lost me again !
I'm reading my replies but couldn't find where I mislead you, this time.

I meant that this name (that in Italian is the answer of this puzzle) is the name of a real, mammal, Animal.
The same name was used by an American company (big, universally known and still active) for one of his models (not that lucky-known-relevant, in my opininon) in the english form of it. The same english form of it, was also a quite known European maker, active till late 30s (but there the meaning was different, btw).
Again, the same name, always in the English form, can be found in a very limited group, where you can find
also mythological creatures and reading your guesses, I had the impression you were picking from that group.
In my reply #88 there is another heavy clue...
Not Mailbu or Reno.
