KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -In the books, Harry’s Patronus take the form of a stag, representing his father, while adversary turned hero Professor Snape’s Patronus is a doe, a symbol of his long love for Harry’s mother Lily.

Detailed explanation-2: -Their connection and love showed through their Patronuses in a different way to an exact match like Tonks and Lupin. Lily’s husband’s Patronus was a stag, the male form of her doe. The stag and doe complemented each other rather than matched.

Detailed explanation-3: -In Potter, Snape’s Patronus, a soul-guarding magic spell, takes the form of a deer-more specifically, a doe-as a symbol of his love for Lily, because hers was a doe as well.

Detailed explanation-4: -Phineas Nigellus’s portrait inside it overheard Hermione and reported that to Snape. Snape thus knows that Harry and Hermione are in the Forest of Dean, though not exactly where; the Forest of Dean is a largish place, several wooded sections totaling about 40 square miles.

Detailed explanation-5: -Yet despite the danger of his mission, and despite being hated by most of the wizarding world, Snape held on to the one thing that kept him going: the safety of Lily’s son. He even sent his Patronus to guide Harry Potter to the sword of Gryffindor (a known Horcrux-killer) in a nearby lake.
