Line 14:
* They may possess [[Non-Mammal Mammaries|humanlike breasts]], which [[Funny Animal]]s typically lack.
* They display all the mannerisms of a human individual, such as speaking human language (unless they're [[The Speechless]]) and wearing clothes on their body. The type of clothes varies with each setting; Petting Zoo People in 'modern' or science fiction settings will wear modern-day attire, while individuals in fantasy or "native" settings might wear only a loincloth and jewelry, or even forego clothing entirely. Petting Zoo People are much more likely to be [[Fully-Dressed Cartoon Animal|Fully Dressed Cartoon Animals]].
* They will likely wear some form of footwear (unless they're [[Barefoot Cartoon
* A female will typically have humanlike, styleable [[Tertiary Sexual Characteristics|hair on her head]], while a male's head simply has the same pelt as he has on the rest of his body.
** Though males with similarly humanlike hair is not uncommon. Sometimes this is also inverted with Petting Zoo People lions and those based off of lions, where the males are known for their manes.
Line 51:
* ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'' has a whole race of them, the Beastmen.
* In ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', the Magical World seems mostly composed by [[Kemonomimi]]s, but there are quite a few of Petting Zoo People too. Most "Bear Mama", the bear woman who took care of some of the characters for a while.
* ''[[One Piece]]''
** Tony Tony Chopper from
** Foxy also had three rat Petting Zoo People in his crew who helped him prepare for the grand match of Davy Back Fight.
** The Mink Tribe is an entire species of Petting Zoo people of various animal stock, mostly mammals, who either fit this Trope or [[Funny Animal]]. Peculiarly, Mink often are of different animal stock within same family; a child is not necessarily the same stock as his or her parents.
** The Fishmen are similar to the Minks (some are this Trope, some are borderline or higher), [[Fish People| but fish-like]].
* In ''[[Bleach]]'', Sajin Komamura appears to be this.
* [[Owl Be Damned|Fukuro]] in ''[[Fairy Tail]]''.
Line 59 ⟶ 62:
* They are a common sight in the ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' series, even moreso in the earlier arcs. Major characters that fit this trope included Puar, [[Pig Man|Oolong]], and Korin. Other examples of this trope are Captain Yellow (a tiger), a high-ranking officer of the Red Ribbon Army and King Furry (a dog), the King of Earth.
* At least ''three'' of ''[[Doraemon]]'''s [[Non-Serial Movie]] have settings around the anthropomorphic animal's societies. One having mixed up species, one having birds, and one having dogs and cats. They act and speak so similarly to the Earthlings that the heros are always able to disguise themselves simply with animal outfits and use the language translation gum.
* In ''[[My Hero Academia]]'', Principal Nezu is a very rare case of an animal who was born with a Quirk; in his case, it gives him superhuman intelligence, an anthropomorphic physique, and the ability to talk. However, exactly what species of animal he's supposed to be is debatable, as he seems to have traits of a mouse, bear, and dog.

Line 118 ⟶ 121:
* Arol in the norwegian fantasy series Phenomena, who is an icebear commonly called "winter bear" in-story, but sometimes typoed(?) as icebear. He and his tribe wears clothes and armors and talks like everyone else and walks on two a lot. Though he runs on four.
* Some of the kemos in the web-novel ''[[Domina]]'' fall into this. Most, however, only have [[Little Bit Beastly|a few bits here and there]].
* In ''[[Harry Potter]]'' mythos, the Veela are nymph-like creatures who can change into bird-people when angered. Exactly which form is their true form is not stated.
== Live Action TV ==
* Anubis "Doggie" Cruger from ''[[Power Rangers SPD]]'', an alien dog-person. Who wears a spiffy uniform. There were also a few recurring characters who fit, including Sergeant Silverback (alien ape-person), and Supreme Commander Fowler (alien bird-person).
== Mythology and Religion ==
Line 132 ⟶ 135:
== Newspaper Comics ==
* Thornton the polar bear from ''[[Sherman's Lagoon]]''.
* In ''[[Shoe]]'', the whole cast are bird-people.
== Tabletop Games ==
Line 155 ⟶ 158:
** Kercpa - squirrel people.
** Kenku - another bird people, with looks of a hawk and attitude of a magpie.
** Lizardfolk - "common" lizard people. Come in three varieties, [[Fragile Speedster|greenscales]], [[Dumb Muscle|bluescales]], and [[The Corruption|Lizard Kings]]
** Locathah - fish people.
** Loxos - elephant people.
Line 201 ⟶ 204:
** Murlocks, fish people.
** [[Proud Merchant Race| Tortollans]], turtle people; naturally they don't like the naga much.
** Arakkoa, bird people.
** Taurens, bull and cow people
** Pandarens, panda people
** Vulpera, fox people
* ''[[Undertale]]'' has Toriel (goat woman), Undyne (fish woman), Mad Mew Mew (cat woman)<ref>[[Nintendo Switch]] version only</ref>, Alphys (lizard woman), Muffet (spider woman), Asgore (bull man), and ''lots'' of [[Beast Man]] mooks.
* The Zonai are a race introduced in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom]]'' that are likely extinct (King Rauru is the only one who interacts with Link, and he's either a ghost or ascended spirit) but given the art depicting them in the game, they seem to have been goat-people, cat-people, and/or fox-people.
== Webcomics ==
Line 228 ⟶ 237:
* Everyone from ''[[Tasakeru]]'' is this.
* ''[[Orion's Arm]]'' has Splices and Rianths, who are Petting Zoo People created out of humans and animals via [[Lego Genetics]]. The difference between a Splice and a Rianth is based on their clade's origins (Rianths are usually descended from humans who made themselves more bestial, while splices tend to be descendants of genetically modified slaves), and is pretty muddled in general.
* In ''[[SCP Foundation]]'' lore, the Wandsmen are a cabal of wizards who explore the universe [[Proud Scholar Race| in an unending quest for knowledge]]; [[Was Once a Man| formerly humans and other mortal beings]], they have become bird people. This seems to be a side effect of the ritual that gave them their powers, and nobody (much less the Wandsmen themselves) know exactly why.
== Western Animation ==
Line 262 ⟶ 271:
* In ''[[Thundercats 2011]]'' the main cast of Thundercats are [[Beast Folk]] [[Catfolk|Cats]], but other Animals, like [[Dogfaces|Dogs]] [[Lizard Folk|Lizards]] and [[Fishmen]] are designed as this type.
* A painting of King Julien that Maurice was painting in one episode of ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]'' depicts him with this appearance.
* ''[[Helluva Boss]]''; hellhounds like Loona are wolf-people, [[Demon Lords and Archdevils| Stolas]] and his family are bird-people, and [[The Don| Crimson's]] henchmen are shark-people.
