I've seen pictures of similar looking animal-people all over the internet, but I never really got what they were. I heard about furries a few days ago and I don't understand them much. What do they do? Does it sprout from a fandom of books/movies/tv shows? Any additional information you could give me would help. I hope you people can help me!
Yeah, they are... humanoid animal-looking things. They're an odd obsession for many. Furry obsessors may illustrate them, write fanfictions with them, but there are not set "furry" characters from any type of media, really.
