There’s also the appeal of animals in and of themselves. Perhaps this is because animals can personify characteristics like strength and speed, or imbue a character with a fantastical visual element. Clearly, there’s a fascination with anthropomorphic characters. Like Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? They’re furries too. And who isn’t familiar with animation superstars They commonly serve as mascots for sports teams and companies. Having survived the test of time, furries permeate pop culture. Further historical examples of furries can be found throughout the world, from Native American mythology to literary works. Anthropomorphic foxes, raccoon dogs and other animals were a recurring subject in classical Japanese ukiyo-e artwork. The ancient Egyptians, for example, had animalistic deities such as Anubis, a man with the head of a jackal. While the terminology is relatively new, evidence of furries in stories and art can be traced back to the dawn of recorded history. Adopted in the 1980s, the term furry has come to classify not just part-human, part-animal creatures, but an emergent culture of animal anthropomorphism enthusiasts. In modern times, we can categorize all anthropomorphic animals (meaning animals with human characteristics) under the broad term of furries. Ancient writers referred to these creatures, using a variety of terms: monsters, beasts and gods. In fact, these creatures are among us today-more numerous and varied than ever before. But the Minotaur was not the first time people have imagined human-animal hybrids. In the story, Theseus kills the only creature of its type in existence. Introduction In the labyrinth on the Isle of Crete, the Greek hero Theseus stands over the dying body of the Minotaur, a being with the head and tail of a bull but the body of a man.
