Zoomorphic - WikiFur, the furry encyclopedia Zoomorphic means having animal characteristics, physical and otherwise. Zoomorphic is sometimes used to describe beings with primarily or even exclusively animal characteristics, contrastive with typical furry depictions which combine human and animal traits in more nearly equal measure. Zoomorphic is also sometimes used to describe humans to which animal characteristics have been added, the idea being that the result is still predominantly human, for example, a human with cat ears. furry.wikia.com /wiki/Zoomorphic   (162 words)
