Perhaps someone can help me understand the difference between an anthropromorphic animal mascot (which as a tale as old as time) and a furry? When does one cease to be one and becomes another?

There are animal mascots all the time in sports. Why is that not weird, but it's weird to have a sporty animal mascot for coins?

For one thing, you can find furries that get horny for any fucking mascot. I 'member Tony the Tiger being "sexually harassed" by furries on twitter.

If you can think of any animalistic or anthro character, there's a very big chance furries want to fuck it.

I would say, given any anthro character, there's a good chance a furry or some furries want to fuck them, but most furries don't.

A large subset of furries want to be an anthro, though, and likely have specific characters they aspire to.
