What kind of creature is the "Grinch"?

The "Grinch" is a creature invented by Dr. Seuss for his stories. The author wrote in rhyming books about the "Grinch", who wants to ruin the Christmas celebrations of the people in "Whoville". 

In the visual representations, the "Grinch" is green, his figure resembles a pear and his face has something cat-like about it. The character was also recreated in this way in the live-action film in which Jim Carrey took on the role of the "Grinch". 

Since the creation of the "Grinch", the character has become known and loved worldwide. The name "Grinch" is often even used as a synonym for people who don't like Christmas or are grumpy at this time of year. 

What kind of creature the "Grinch" is was not always the same, by the way. In an earlier work by Dr. Seuss, 'Scrambled Eggs Super!', the "Grinch" was an invented bird species, a "Beagle-Billed Bald Grinch" to be precise.
