Q&A: Ferals

Question, "What exactly are ferals? Are they intelligent animals?" Dil pops up on the page and says, "I got this one. No, we are not." We see a pile of papers, one of which shows a rabid dog face with a caption that says, "Disease!" Another shows a strand of dna, and has a caption that reads "Feral Gene Isolated." Another shows a silhouette of a canine quadruped with the heading, "Protect your family from THEM!" Another has the headline, "Rise in feralism linked to global warming?" Finally, another shows a picture of Egyptian hieroglyphics, with the caption, "Ferals in Egyptian mythology." Dil continues to narrate, "Talking animals, wild spirits, birth defect, curse from deity... Those are just a few of the attempts folks have come up with to explain ferals over the years." Next we see a quadruped wolf lying on the floor, wearing glasses and reading a book in a library. Dil continues, "Truth is, feral is just a slang term for an anthro whose body shape and proportions are more like an animal. Other than that we're genetically the same." Next we see a group of people crowded around a bluebird carnival barker, holding a leash attached to an irritated looking tiger, in front of a sign that says, "Talking Tiger, Tix $1." Dil continues, "It wasn't generally accepted that ferals and anthros are the same species until the late 1800s. Before that we had to put up with a lot of indignities." Next, we see a quadruped husky standing in front of a bipedal calico cat, which is pointing to a sign with symbols indicating no smoking, no skateboarding, and no dogs. Dil's voice continues, "Of course, sometimes we still do..." and the husky says, "Oh, come on!!"
