Origin of Furries?

The Isle of Dr. Moreau was the beginning of furries.

Discuss.

...Furries have been around a hell of a lot longer than that.

Read a report earlier this week involving incas that knocked out their own teeth and replaced them with a jaguar's. (Ancient fursuiters?)

It all started with school mascots and a rowdy evening in the Janitor's closet.

i remember a scene from "the shining" near the end that showed furries, was that on the book too?

Nah, there have been Naitive American tribes that impersonated "Animal Spirits" in order to come closer to nature.  Now, bestiality was definitely NOT part of those practices...but most furries are just facinated with animals...

some like to imagine life as an anthro, while others roleplay, and then others...sodomize their pets (o)_(o);;

furries originated on the 5th layer of hell after the fall of the morning star.

someone have a serious article about furries
something from sociologist o psichologist?
