Question, "Are there actual animals in this world?" Answer, "Yes there are! Unlike their anthro counterparts, animals aren't intelligent." In a lab, a barn owl dressed in a lab coat takes notes while observing a rat in a cage. "At least, not as far as scientists have observed. Anthros' relationship with animals is much like that of humans in our world." An anthro horse wearing overalls stands in a grassy field, tossing a forkfull of hay over a fence to some cows grazing nearby. "Though some claim they feel a special affinity towards a particular species of animal." A young anthro dog grins while playing tug-o-war on the floor with an animal dog, both tugging on a rope with their teeth.
