History:He was owned by the three-bodied   giant  Geryon. Orthrus and his master,   Eurytion, were charged with guarding Geryon's herd of red   cattle  in the "sunset" land of   Erytheia  ("red one"), one of the islands of the   Hesperides  in the far west of the Mediterranean. Heracles  <span style="color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">eventually slew Orthrus, Eurytion, and Geryon, before taking the red cattle to complete his <span style="color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">  tenth labor<span style="color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">.

<p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.5em;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">Orthrus was one among Echidna's fearsome brood listed in Hesiod's Theogony. According to some sources, it was he rather than Typhon that sired, with Echidna, further chthonic monstrous creatures: the Chimera, the Sphinx,   the Lernaean Hydra, and even, Hesiod says, the Nemean lion, and Cerberus.
