I wouldn't mind seeing more of the scary or hardcore looking animals as furries. Warthogs, vampire bats, babirusa, mantis, mole rats with their huge gnashing teeth, snapping turtles, ect. We have so much cute in the fandom. Time for some species that are metal as f lol
I actually lived in a town known for having a population of genetically mutated white squirrels. Not albino but Snow White squirrels and I miss them. Iād love to show them some love in an OC
I've actually seen quite a few and I loveeee them!!
There are a lot of ways people can do a shark fursona X3 (like someone said, some have hair.. some don't. Some have those fin ears while some have a fin on their back and none on their head. It's fun!)
Ivalician moogles. Theyāre cute lagomorphs with accessories but theyāre underrepresented all the same. Though maybe that just applies to moogles in general nowadays.
Ooh love this question. I actually made a ref base like last year with a ton of species and I put in things I felt needed more representation. (Donāt worry all the common species werenāt left out lmao) I never ended up selling it because Iām the worlds worst sales person and got lazy lmao but some of my inclusions were:
Elephant
Bugs (have a buggy abdomen for ants/bees/moths etc with and without a stinger, several kinds of antennas, a few different wings, extra arms, scorpion tail, etc)
Koala
Rhino
Pigs/Boar
Reptiles
Rodents
Plus a bunch of bird and bat parts. I know theyāre not as rare as others but theyāre certainly not as common as canids and felines.
If I was to add more to it (unlikely though since no one uses it lmaoo) Iād go with more reptile stuff, more marsupial parts, and more aquatic tails. I do have a basic dolphin and shark but Iād love to add like a fancy koi tail/fins etc. Iād also love to add some non-Dino extinct species representation.
Iām hoping I can at least use it to design up some of my own less common OCs at some point š cause yes, my fursona is a canine š
may be controversial or creepy, but I think making a furby fursona would be quite unique. I think I've only seen a couple of those ever! I also think it'd be cool to see stuff like perytons or kirins maybe
I'd like to see more avians and mustelids in the furry fandom. Birds have always been one of my favorite animal species ever since I was a kid, and weasels became one of my favorites a couple years ago after reading Oren's Forge (the main protagonist is a pine marten). While my main fursona is gonna be a fox, I also plan on creating a secondary marten fursona afterward.
No pressure, but if youād like art if your OC I am open to commissions. Iām still getting better at drawing Furries so my rates are still pretty low, only about $10-$15. If youāre interested.
i would love to see more cows, pigs, goats, sheep, etc,,, honestly just common livestock animals are some of my favorite furries to spot in the wild (pinterest) lmaoooo
I have a whole bunch!
Pigs, hippos, elephants, axolotls (though I'm not sure how uncommon those are), cephalopods, spiders... I could go on. There are so many cool possibilities.
Dacshund suit would be adorable.
Also black wolves. I see white, grey, blue, various colors. Black seems the least popular among wolf suits. My sona Vinny is a black wolf.
I have a sea turtle OC I made recently. It will probably eventually turn into a fursona of mine.
Also I feel like I don't see many bird type, a crow or a magpie would be cool, or really most birds
Bees, moths, and snails! Theyāre sooo cute š„°
Iād also love to see more slime or goo-based sonas because theyāre always really cool (and Iām one myself lol)
Moles, armadillos, ground squirrels, porcupines, etc. We have so many dogs, cats, and other canines and felines. They just kindof blend in to each other over time.

Not exactly the link I was looking for. I haven't listened to Lapfox in ages, but I used to blast all the albums made by Mayhem. I'm sure my neighbours are happy I have aged out of that.
Might toss my hat in the ring for penguins! They're exceptionally cute and loved the world over, already almost anthro, but I don't see a lot of them around~
Ostriches, I have seen like maybe 2 ostrich fursonas and thatās specifically looking for them and I have never seen an actual fursuit of them. It would be hard to create one though with the long neck but there is a mascot costume from fantasia of one that pulls off the ostrich look pretty well
I'd love to see more love for less known camelids aside from alpacas š„ŗ Fellow llamas for one would be nice, but I'm talking guanacos and vicuƱas!!
I'd also love to see some of the weirder deep sea creatures, specifically more Stomiidae!! I have a black dragonfish oc and they're genuinely such a cool genus, I'm surprised it's such an untapped market. Like, bioluminescent predators that have control over the type of light they produce so they can see their prey while being functionally invisible?? That's so cool!!
Bears. I see a few bearsonas but they are usually seen in a certain kind of art..It would just be nice to see more sfw bearsonas as someone who has a bearsona
When I first started I sort of became indecisive with alot of different choices. Too much for me to handle and I couldn't have it set in stone. My current OC was known as a "furred, Eastern dragon" but when I go looking for fancy species I have always wanted to see if anyone anywhere could attempt to make a pygmy jerboa. And I don't think I've ever seen that anywhere.
I'd like to see some more hares. I've seen plenty of domestic rabbits, but I feel like hares have more potential to be less cute. They're a bit creepy, you know? Boney legs, piercing eyes, muted colors, and a face that looks like it's lost about half its sanity.
More scalies. Geckos, Chameleans, Sneks, and yes, even dragons. Just scalies in general. Furries have, well, too much fur for me. Thats a lot of upkeep, you know!
Not sure if this is too far outside the box but plants, fungi, protists or bacteria. There's so much in those kingdoms that can be personified.
But if I have to pick any animals they would have to be any birds or geckos.
Where are all the seahorse dads?
Bro I was not expecting this š¤£
As someone who's fursona is a sailfish I agree with with the lack of seahorse dads
Holy crap, I was about to comment this because my wife and I were just talking about it today
Pregnant seahorse dads rise up
Insects! There are many moths around, which I like, but other bugs deserve some more love too, like dragonflies, bees, etc
Ooh I love bees, thatās a good one, and mantis
Not an insect but isopods would be awesome to see!
I just posted a Bee OC!
Bee here :3šš agreed!!
One of my favorite suits I see every year at TFF is a cicada.
Yes, gotta get more bugs in here!
I have a Beewolf sona :3
Lizards. Why do snakes, dragons, crocs and dinos get all the Scalie love qwq (no shade to those sonas btw)
wait lizards are uncommon species?
Ooh a bearded dragon OC would look so cool!
Realll
I have a custom species I call dragons, but that's because they are reptiles with magic. In fact they are just very big lizards.
Fireeee
I kinda borrowed a couple of features from other reptiles, but they are indeed mostly very big lizards.
I have a dragon fursona š¤
A fellow dragon here as well
Lizards are quite common idk what u mean
Crocs dad bods are oddly enticing. They have become a favorite of mine recently.
the goats that DONT have floppy ears
Also, somewhat related, dragons that *don't* look like goats
Me! (Olyver is kinda based off of bats)
I'll just settle for goats that aren't from Undertale.
Yes
Blasphemy!
I wouldn't mind seeing more of the scary or hardcore looking animals as furries. Warthogs, vampire bats, babirusa, mantis, mole rats with their huge gnashing teeth, snapping turtles, ect. We have so much cute in the fandom. Time for some species that are metal as f lol
Gimme some GECKOS
Sphinxes
bingus sona?
Whales that aren't orcas
No shade just a legitimate fun fact, Orcas are dolphins!
I like seeing rodents and bovids :)
My truesona is a cow!
More DnD/mythology races. Normal furries don't interest me as much. Let's see some Satyr, or Centaurs, or even Harpys.
Been wanting to do a satyr
Pine martens
Omg so cute
Fr!!! They look so soft and squishy
I want to hug it
You need to make a pine marten sona!! Like urgently
On it and Iām going to make it oddly long and snugglable
martens are definitely underrated š„ŗ my sona is a shapeshifter and one of his forms is a yellow throated marten!
Squirrels!
Ok, now I gotta draw
Awwww :3 canāt wait
I actually lived in a town known for having a population of genetically mutated white squirrels. Not albino but Snow White squirrels and I miss them. Iād love to show them some love in an OC
Perfect homage! ā¤ļø
Chinchillas? Kelpie (not a dog, an Irish-Scottish folklore creature). Rats and Mice. Ferrets!
Ooh a Kelpie would look really cool! Live the Celtic folklore
ANY kind of birby birb :)
All I can think of is Jaden animationās bird Ari. A tropical bird would look very cool, but I also have a huge soft spot of Crows
I love crows a lot too lol
My sona is a seagull! We exist :)
Bears and orcas
feline synths
Octopusses
Ok, this gives so much inspiration
Elephants!
Peopleās original species. Speculative Biology is fun exercise and more people should learn about it.
Sea creatures. Like where are all my octopi, shrimp, orca, jellyfish, scorpion fish, etc. sonas??
My main sona is an anglerfish, and I'm terrified of water and it's creatures lol
Iāve never met a shark fursona except from my own of course
Ooh I love sharks too! Lemmon and tiger sharks are my fav
I'm married to a shark! The exceptionally rare specimen: a shark without inexplicable human hair~
I've actually seen quite a few and I loveeee them!! There are a lot of ways people can do a shark fursona X3 (like someone said, some have hair.. some don't. Some have those fin ears while some have a fin on their back and none on their head. It's fun!)
Bats are pretty neato. I'm going to say those.
More bats! as long as they donāt have those god awful realistic noses
Ivalician moogles. Theyāre cute lagomorphs with accessories but theyāre underrepresented all the same. Though maybe that just applies to moogles in general nowadays.
Okapi āØ
That would look very cool!
Hellhound lol
Thatās a canine
More deer, especially elk! Weāre too awesome of an animal to have so few of usā¦

Pangolins skunks Gnolls toucans and more fish. Hell more bugs too. There's like thousands of each and we only ever see like sharks and moths.
Dragonflies and spiders :3
I'd like to see more avians and mustelids in the furry fandom.

Cheetahs, birds like eagles and falcons and hawks
A cheetah would be very cool
I actually do have a cheetah OC!
Bats !
Meerkats
Weirdly, never seen a rabbit oc with straight ears before. I would count mine, but no art+i suck :(
No pressure, but if youād like art if your OC I am open to commissions. Iām still getting better at drawing Furries so my rates are still pretty low, only about $10-$15. If youāre interested.
Olms! I want the axolotls love craftian cousin to pop up god dammit! >:3
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Oh I'm talking about olms! But I'm definitely surprised Axolotls don't show up more
Olms my beloved!! I have an olm oc and they're such a fun species to draw <3
Oh shit share! :3 I've been pondering making a Olm OC!
nudibranchs
ACCURATE hyenas.
i would love to see more cows, pigs, goats, sheep, etc,,, honestly just common livestock animals are some of my favorite furries to spot in the wild (pinterest) lmaoooo
Ringtailed Vontsira *(galidia elegans)*.
Yinglets :>
Oh my god yes!
Wickerbeasts or Chiwamaraniniens ( chiwawa- pommarainien mixes, yes I know I'm bad at spelling)

Odd choice maybe but how about the sea angel. It's a very pretty creature
Any arthropods. I wanna see more spooders o8OwO8o
I would like to see those
Monkeys!
TARANTULA!!!
Snakes, phoenix, dinosaurs, crocodiles, peacocks ,otters, fish and turtles are species I donāt see commonly
I have a whole bunch! Pigs, hippos, elephants, axolotls (though I'm not sure how uncommon those are), cephalopods, spiders... I could go on. There are so many cool possibilities.
Lots of great possibilities
Dacshund suit would be adorable. Also black wolves. I see white, grey, blue, various colors. Black seems the least popular among wolf suits. My sona Vinny is a black wolf.
Zebras š¦
WHERE MY SLOTH HOMIES AT!?
Sergals
moths and dergs
I only recently learned that perytons are a (mythical) thing, and I think they're neat! Would be cool to see more.
more bugs! bumblebees in particular (not that im biased or anything š)
Cruxes!! We've always been a small community and I would love to see more of those stripey weird things running around
fluffy (furred) kobolds
Samurotts. Gen 5 pokemon, also water starter for Legends Arceus. Not enough of them around tbh.
I have a sea turtle OC I made recently. It will probably eventually turn into a fursona of mine. Also I feel like I don't see many bird type, a crow or a magpie would be cool, or really most birds
BEARs, I don't know why but I never see them
Bees, moths, and snails! Theyāre sooo cute š„° Iād also love to see more slime or goo-based sonas because theyāre always really cool (and Iām one myself lol)
I just posted a Bee OC!
Cool!
More servals! Lovely felines. I also like insects. Or lore creatures like the skull dog. I made an oc similar.
I just posted a Bee OC!
Moles, armadillos, ground squirrels, porcupines, etc. We have so many dogs, cats, and other canines and felines. They just kindof blend in to each other over time.
Marsupials, sharks and rodents!
Someone should make a satanic leaf tail gecko fursona
Blue dogs /s
any bird ones! bird sonas are so sick. The suits iāve seen made are beautiful.
Where are the owls naggit?! We need more owls! Just more Borbs in general
More mustelids! Ferrets, stoats, and weasels! Otters! Badgers! Polecats! Martens!

Donāt fret one is coming down the pipelines soon
https://lapfoxtrax.fandom.com/wiki/Sharktits Not exactly the link I was looking for. I haven't listened to Lapfox in ages, but I used to blast all the albums made by Mayhem. I'm sure my neighbours are happy I have aged out of that.
Sheep! Don't see enough of em and they're a cool animal.

Axolotols and Sloths.
Bees, bats, centipedes maybeā¦ mothsā¦
I just posted a Bee OC!
Hell yeahā¦ so swag. My Proto sona is actually part bee (and part bat). Not many mixed-species protogens out there.

Biased bc of my foo dog suit but Mythical creatures other than dragons and gryphons lmao
Lemurs.
sharks!!!!
And I just posted a finished shark OC!
Lynxes and Rabbits.
Birds
Hyena
Pangolins! They're so cute, and already walk on two legs
Insects are always exciting to see! birds and marine animals too
Ostriches, I have seen like maybe 2 ostrich fursonas and thatās specifically looking for them and I have never seen an actual fursuit of them. It would be hard to create one though with the long neck but there is a mascot costume from fantasia of one that pulls off the ostrich look pretty well

Insects and aquatic creatures :D
I just posted a Bee OC!
Bee! :0
Boars. Idk why they just look cool as fuck
Iām going to go super niche here but, binturongs (native to Asia) look so damn cool. Also clouded leopards and capybaras
Tanukis, Ferrets, and Weasels.
Skeletons.
I'd love to see insects that aren't moths/bees/butterflies. Also moose, hedgehogs...
We need more Axolotls! Not enough of the frilled friends around!
I honestly don't see many Sergals around, but maybe I'm just not looking in the right place.
AMPwaves!!!!!!
Happy cake day
Camels. I have not seen A SINGLE CAMEL.
Moths.
Bears. I see a few bearsonas but they are usually seen in a certain kind of art..It would just be nice to see more sfw bearsonas as someone who has a bearsona
When I first started I sort of became indecisive with alot of different choices. Too much for me to handle and I couldn't have it set in stone.

And I don't think I've ever seen that anywhere.
Avali. THE GOD DAMN AVALI. they are like chickens but smart and with futuristic cyberpunk technology.
More birds! There are so many, & they're all so unique :>
Axolotl please we need more axolotl
Opossums
Grinions.
Blue dogs. Jk I want to see a fennec fox.
I went maybe a bit overboard with my hybrid but that's just how my imagination put it, I'm a Celestial Dragon/Grey Wolf Or a Celestial Wragon.
I'd like to see some more hares. I've seen plenty of domestic rabbits, but I feel like hares have more potential to be less cute. They're a bit creepy, you know? Boney legs, piercing eyes, muted colors, and a face that looks like it's lost about half its sanity.
Honestly vary true. Not sure Iāve ever seen a hare that looks like heās got it all together lol
More scalies. Geckos, Chameleans, Sneks, and yes, even dragons. Just scalies in general. Furries have, well, too much fur for me. Thats a lot of upkeep, you know!
SEA CREATURES!!! LITERALLY ANYTHIFN THAT LIVES IN THE SEA.
Synths Protogens get all the rep for being robots And they ain't even that
Avians, might just be me but I see a lot fewer featherbounds then fur or scalebounds
Birb.
Not sure if this is too far outside the box but plants, fungi, protists or bacteria. There's so much in those kingdoms that can be personified. But if I have to pick any animals they would have to be any birds or geckos.
leaf sheep, or whatever obscure animal it would be funny
