| - Funny animal is a cartooning term for the genre of comics and animated cartoons in which the main characters are anthropomorphic or talking animals, with human-like personality traits. The characters themselves may also be called "funny animals".
- They're animals who think, talk and act mostly like human beings. Unlike the Speech-Impaired Animal or Talking Animal (whose priorities and motivations are still that of an animal despite their ability to speak), the Funny Animal has almost all the mannerisms of a human being. Sometimes, only his appearance distinguishes him from the hairless primates who draw him. Indeed, one of the main incentives in using such characters are that they are more distinctive, and hence easier to draw as recognizable individuals, than ordinary humans. Or maybe it's just because Furries Are Easier to Draw.

- Funny animal (lett. "animali buffi") è un termine usato dai cartonisti anglofoni (ma non in italiano) sia nei fumetti che cartoni animati per riferirsi ad personaggio principale rappresentato da un animale umanoide o in grado di parlare. Si può utilizzare il termine funny animal per riferirsi anche ad un semplice personaggio animale presente in questo cartone. Di regola, i personaggi funny animails sono particolarmente stilizzati, da cui l'origine del termine. Rese realistiche di lupi mannari o altri ibridi umani/animali tendono ad essere escluse da questa categoria.

Caption
| - Disney's Pluto consistently exhibits dog-like behaviors, like digging, barking, and chewing bones. Funny animals like Goofy, however, behave more like humans. They often speak, walk upright, wear clothes, hold jobs, etc. While other characters acknowledge that Goofy is a dog, he is still treated as if he were human.
- Funny animal characters often exhibit human-like behavior such as wearing clothes, standing on two legs, manipulating objects with their hands, and talking.

abstract
| - Funny animal (lett. "animali buffi") è un termine usato dai cartonisti anglofoni (ma non in italiano) sia nei fumetti che cartoni animati per riferirsi ad personaggio principale rappresentato da un animale umanoide o in grado di parlare. Si può utilizzare il termine funny animal per riferirsi anche ad un semplice personaggio animale presente in questo cartone. Di regola, i personaggi funny animails sono particolarmente stilizzati, da cui l'origine del termine. Rese realistiche di lupi mannari o altri ibridi umani/animali tendono ad essere escluse da questa categoria. Nonostante la maggior parte delle storie che involgono funny animal trattino di comiche o temi disimpegnati, non necessariamente sono commedie. Racconti dalle tinte più oscure o che trattino temi seri in cui siano presenti animali antropomorfi vengono talvolta raggruppati nella categoria dei "funny animal". Queste storie possono interescarsi anche tra vari generi o gruppi di essi, inclusi temi storici, fantascienza, western, intrattenimento per bambini, e satira.
- Funny animal is a cartooning term for the genre of comics and animated cartoons in which the main characters are anthropomorphic or talking animals, with human-like personality traits. The characters themselves may also be called "funny animals". While many funny animal stories are light-hearted and humorous, the genre is not exclusively comedic. Dark or serious stories featuring characters of this sort can also be grouped under the "funny animals" category, sometimes referred to as anthropomorphics to avoid confusion over the range of genres. These stories may intersect with any other genre or group of genres, including Historical fiction, science fiction, superhero, western, slapstick comedy, children's entertainment, and satire.
- They're animals who think, talk and act mostly like human beings. Unlike the Speech-Impaired Animal or Talking Animal (whose priorities and motivations are still that of an animal despite their ability to speak), the Funny Animal has almost all the mannerisms of a human being. Sometimes, only his appearance distinguishes him from the hairless primates who draw him. Indeed, one of the main incentives in using such characters are that they are more distinctive, and hence easier to draw as recognizable individuals, than ordinary humans. Or maybe it's just because Furries Are Easier to Draw. A good comparison, from the Scooby Doo cartoons: Scooby-Doo is a Speech-Impaired Animal. Scrappy-Doo, who might as well be a midget in a dog suit, is a Funny Animal. (This jarring difference is one reason why Scrappy-Doo's character seems to be universally loathed.) The main distinguishing trait of many Funny Animals is that in most situations, they can be replaced by a human and the plot would be mostly identical. Unlike Petting Zoo People, which have animal heads and tails on humanoid bodies, Funny Animals have a body that is generally shaped like that of their respective species. Funny Animals are bipedal even if their species is not naturally so, and most Funny Animal birds have Feather Fingers, whether their wings look completely like wings or look (to varying degrees) like arms. Some Funny Animals can shift between using two legs and four. Practically any cartoon series from the Golden Age of Animation, or video games aimed at children younger than 13 have at least one such character. Funny Animal is the technical term used by cartoonists to refer to the genre and characters. Also note that the "funny" in the title isn't literal. Frequently overlaps with Animal Superheroes and Intelligent Gerbil. May live in a World of Funny Animals. May suffer from Carnivore Confusion and Furry Confusion. See Petting Zoo People for characters who are even more anthropomorphized, and Civilized Animal and Talking Animal for those who are less anthropomorphized. For further tropes pertaining to funny animals, furries and the tropes that appear frequently in their genres, see Funny Animal Tropes. Compare Intellectual Animal. Closely related to Beast Fable, which is the ancient form of the genre. On the Sliding Scale of Anthropomorphism, these fall somewhere between the Civilized Animal (who still looks and acts like an animal, but lives in a Mouse World of some sort) and the Petting Zoo Person (who might as well be human).

The characters themselves may also be called funny animals. Well-known examples include Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny and Tom & Jerry. While many funny animal stories are light-hearted and humorous, the genre is not exclusively comedic. Dark or serious stories featuring characters of this sort can also be grouped under the "funny animals" category, sometimes referred to as anthropomorphics to avoid confusion over the range of genres. These stories may intersect with any other genre or group of genres, including historical fiction, science fiction, superhero, western, slapstick comedy, children's entertainment, and satire. In the 1940s, Fawcett Comics published a comic book entitled Funny Animals, featuring such characters as Hoppy the Marvel Bunny, an anthropomorphic rabbit version of Captain Marvel.
