I was using the Faunus as a similar, albeit defferent example. Thus far while we have seen some rather crazy anatomy, we haven't seen any Faunus that combine a human with a fictional animal, only things as crazy as a cat girl with a forked spine and a Scorpion-tailed nut job. Similarly, we have only seen transformations into actual birds that exist IRL. Mind you the latter only has one known example.

While it may be a tribe thing, the only person doing it stopped being part of the group years ago, and knowledge usually isn't fundamentally bound by allegance. Maybe Qrow or Raven could teach her, seeing as the former is the only known example, and the latter is the most likely second example.
