* Where LittleBitBeastly folks have human skin, Petting Zoo People possess fur-, feather-, or scale-covered bodies. Sometimes they have a mix of skin accented with heavy concentrations of fur (et al), a built-in PrettyInMink as it were. Species with little fur by default (elephants, cetaceans, etc.) get a pass.

* The moreaus of S.A. Swann's Literature/MoreauSeries are mostly this, although some early types border on CivilizedAnimal. Moreaus are typicall bipedal, possessing functional hands and full speech capacity. Other human-like traits vary, although they're usually animalistic in appearance, and females lack visible breasts. Some strains have enhanced capacity for facial expression, and a few can even cry.

* ''{{CHEVALIER}}'' The animal characters in this romantic fantasy adventure are a prime example. [[http://www.webcomicsnation.com/moniquem/chev/series.php Here.]]
* The cast of ''TheCyantianChronicles'' are mostly human-animal hybrids created by an [[{{Precursors}} ancient alien race]], largely divided into digitigrade Ricael (wolves, foxes, coyotes, jackals...), and plantigrade Talin (rabbits, mice, sheep, mounties aka felines...). But there's also quite a few aliens of this form and some new hybrids (most notably fruit-scented skunks and psychic raccoons) created by the fox.
* ''{{Lackadaisy}}'' takes place in an American 1920's where all humans are cats. Other animals such as dogs and pigs exist as we know them; so even though the reader perceives the characters as cats, they are truly and essentially human.

* Borderline PZP have a body that does not look simply like an animal-accented human body, nor does it keep the basic shape of the animal entirely like a FunnyAnimal. They look partly humanoid and partly like their species, often they have either humanoid legs and non-humanoid torso, humanoid torso and non-humaniod legs, or look semi-humanoid all over. Many [[TopHeavyGuy top heavy]] bipedal animal characters are of the humanoid torso and non-humaniod legs variety. Females are depicted with human-like breasts fairly often.

* Seen from time to time among the wide assortment of alien species in ''Literature/PerryRhodan''. A particularly conspicuous example, however, would be the mostly-benevolent Duchy of Krandhor introduced in the post-issue #1000 story arc, whose various member species practically ran this trope into the ground -- anthropomorphic lizards, squirrels, (air-breathing) squids and whatnot united under the mostly-benevolent leadership of anthropomorphic "wolf-lions"... The subplot set there didn't exactly prove popular with the established fanbase, and while PettingZooPeople of various stripes have shown up both before and since they never did so again in such a concentrated form.

Humanlike hair on male characters, some characters pretty much lacking a muzzle and just having a fur-covered human face with an animal-like nose, and (most surprisingly) humanlike ears are featured.
