So anyone wonder where that skunk-butt-rug came from? Given that this is Disney there... probably aren't animals killing and skinning each other, so did the skunk volunteer to have his but shaved and made into a rug? If so, why would anyone do that?

I don't know about Skunks, but if you had a valuable resource growing on your body, I can't see why you'd object to having it shaved and sold, as long as it didn't hurt you. Which probably explains the presence of dairy products and woollen clothes. Hell, that sheep who got his chest wool burnt off by a train was probably real pissed; that was going to pay his rent. :V

It's kinda like people giving their hair to charity to get wigs made of it, I guess?

On the subject of skunks, I have to wonder how they would spray. In a life or death situation, having to essentially strip to save yourself is worth it, but it seems pretty undignified otherwise. I kind of like the idea that they bottle their own spray and use it like mace.

I would say it'd be like a Finding Nemo situation, where they spray if they get startled.

As it's based on real science I'm gonna guess Zorses and Ligers are possible but not Jackelopes. My headcanon is that the Mayor's kids are Ligers.

Good. There's enough freaky hybrids in the furry fandom already, we don't need to encourage them.

[up] #2372 @troperhearts: Yes, in fact, I have quite a few. And more to come even if I'm busy in real life (and Kingdom Hearts Unchained X) so I need to finish the Taxi Driver pic... [tup]

BTW [up] #2373 Thanks, PresidentStalkeyes! <3

EDIT: I was inspired! Here's a not so quick sketch I just did. I present to you, Nickalli.

Oh, and a quick thing I did last night. Random cuddle pic

Thanks, but I'm not. <3

And I've got FANG, Rashid and Necalli (which I will color at some point) but I haven't done the most obvious one yet: Rolento.

Kids are basically media shorthand for "the relationship was successful, period" (even if that isn't always the case in real life). Writers often use it to confirm a good relationship without having to write all that messy substance.

In fandoms, ships live or die based on that sort of thing. Supporters of X ship love proof their that their OTP is going to last forever, and detractors of X ship love having moments where they can claim the couple fails offscreen the moment we're not looking at them (without throwing out canon, anyway). Babies Ever After gives validation to one and hurts the other.

But hybrid kids between aliens or something is just kinda missing the point isn't it? tongue

Like, a lot of shipping tropes seems to be about distilling every ship to be same exact standardized cocktail if that makes any sense :P

Here's something I just remembered. Rabbits can't actually vomit. If they eat something poisonous, they're basically dead. I wonder how they got that across to Judy at school.

"Remember, kids, be very careful about what you eat. Because if you're not, you'll die!!"
