  • Whenever they talk about furries on shows they nearly always bring up just the fursuiters :p

  • is that Bebop??? HOLLY MACAMOLLY We need to call Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:

    1:48

  • wat

  • ow my god this made my day :3

  • wtf is wrong with the guy

  • Yeah... Its about time for another plague or something. These weird asses are compelling defense of that

  • what a bunch of dorks

  • okay well it's not WRONG but i don't see why they can't show another side of them without the need for a costume.

  • Comment removed

  • i see nothing inherently wrong with these guys, but i would like to point out this is a tad odd even for us. (furry here)

    we tend to be a bit less... enthusiastic perhaps? i note that they were just running around dressed up in public. as in, not at a convention or anything. idk, maybe its just me, but it seems a bit odd and overly eccentric. well, to each his/her own :)

  • does that last guy's fursuit remind anyone else of Old Greg?

  • TailsRulz brought me here.

  • lol this is really cute :)

  • i think ill stick to the animes...

  • :/

  • my mom wont let me wear my giraffe costume to school pls help i rly want to wear it i loe giraffes

  • @Ln192 Do you want to get beat up?

  • @justicegang The fact that you've scrolled through countless pages of comments just to reply with that, makes it even more justifyable to lynch and burn all of you disgusting cat-raping faggots.

  • That's cute! And I think without him doing that, he might be depressed or sad. he is after all... Really shy and the suit allows him to come out of his shell.

  • If I were a furry I'd be a MOTHAF**KIN' HONEY BADGER

  • @Gligar13Vids there is a difference between wearing a costume on Halloween or to an event that asks you to wear a costume. Grown men and women who act this way in society are in need of some serious mental help. this behavior is inappropriate and very very weird. this is on the line of multiple personality disorder if you truly believe that you are an animal. sure this may be legal in america but i still think that this is weird. "as long as they don't take it too far" what does that mean?

  • @TheOnlyChocomonsta It means stop policing people because you don't like certain shit and leave it alone. Not your business.

  • @TheOnlyChocomonsta I can certainly agree that it may be a strange occurrence for grown adults to partake in such a strange activity. However, at the end of the day much like a person who partakes in cross dressing or transvestites does it honestly hurt the wide spread populous? It may be considered a strange site and some may giggle at the weird occurrence but other than that what more does it do to the passer by?

  • these people need serious help

  • @TheOnlyChocomonsta What's wrong with wearing a costume?

    Not all furries are crazy, as long as they don't take it too far.

  • I meet at least one furry every year at my local anime convention who decides they one to tell me everything about themselves for no reason

  • cute

  • stupid abominations

  • >Believing you're not entirely human

    That's where it gets weird.

  • Fake.

    Jk, I know this is real. Anything is possible.

  • Combination fox, dragon, and PLANT??? It's not the dressing up or the sex that I find weird, its the lack of creativity, even bad sci-fi is more original.

  • AWW i think they are adorable! Good for them!

  • Comment removed

  • what would you be?

  • as long as they don't harm anyone, then fine....mmm i wanna be ....mmm.....a dolphin! a furry dolphin!

  • @scorpion20112 Dolphins dont have fur, lol.

  • DIS SHITS FFFAAAUUUKKKEEDD

  • This is unacceptable human behavior...grew the fuck up.

  • @TheRecon911 And being a dumbass is more acceptable?

  • @TheRecon911

    Learn proper tense first.

  • There not furries there Vigins

  • @armyvsmarines1 and you sir are illiterate :D

  • I thought the woman in the thumbnail was a furry. O_o

    But whatever floats your boat. Doesn't affect me any. So why would I care if you're a furry?

  • RAAAAAGE that's a fursuiter, a furry is a person who like anthropomorphic animals. -.-''

  • these national geographic people know nothing about them....... well they know a little bit

  • ON THE NEXT EPISODE OF NG: Bronies~

  • FURRIES UNITE ♥

  • I'm Furry and i KNOW it!

  • why doesn't he be like a kids party entertainer or someshit

  • so the socially inept found a way to socialize. let them, who cares. it's the people calling them losers and insulting them that are the real mentally handicapped in this situation. granted, it's not for me, but taunting them and calling them losers is an ugly little grade school mentality. you are no different or better.

  • 24 years old, and almost bald, what a loser!

  • @big92fs From where I'm sitting i can't see that you're any better...in fact I'd perfer the company of that guy to some one who insults others because they're insecure and haven't found a healthy outlet for what ever problems like they have. All i can tell is that you're jealous you haven't haha!

  • How Lame!

  • Wouldn't dressing up as Bebop count as cosplaying?

  • @LeonReal77 yup

  • Alkains a pretty badass tree climber

  • part plant wonder if he can smoke himsef

  • Nuka cola!

  • I'm a liberal guy, anyone who wants to dress up and pretend they are a cat is fine by me. However anyone who seriously believes that they are part cat or part dog is, in my books ether mentally ill or very deluded.

  • And yet people see nothing wrong with mascots at sports events or on charitiy runs. It's a hobby people. get over yourselves.

  • I personally think obsessive anime and fanfic people are just as bad as furries, also roleplaying game people, from my experience, they are cliquish and precious about who they make friends with.

  • When did Peter Singer become an expert on furries?

  • Also called socially awkward people...

  • Correction: "...part human, full retard."

  • I wish i could see this episode

  • This is soo cute. What is wrong with wearing the costume? Is it because they are adults? They aren't harming anyone. There is some psychological aspect as to why they wear the costumes but I don't see wrong with it. It's just different. Adults are expected to be serious and such, these people have the qualities of being a child at heart and there isn't anything wrong with such belief other than the fact they think they are half animals.

  • omg..

  • This is pretty awesome

  • Ugh, I really hate when we're portrayed like this. Everything seems so negative and they make the guy seem so socially inept. I accept that some furries are actually like this, and I don't have anything against them, but these reports never seem be be capable of examining the bigger picture.

  • This guy was a TA for one of my classes, some unique pass times but a more friendly guy than your average person for sure. He's a good person.

  • furries are fucked up

  • Bebop from TMNT! awsm

  • I WANT BE A MONKEY

  • gahhh too much social awkwardness

  • upload full episode please!

  • LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

  • Shoot I'm goin furrie

  • They forgot the "yiff" part

  • furfags detected, haters gonna hate

  • I feel as if Anime had something to do with this.

  • Interesting how one of them has a bebop fursuit,

    pretty damn nice I might add.

  • I'd pick this over being fat, and im fat

  • if any one of those so called furries tried to play with me he will get a bunch on his face i'm not a part of a kids show :D

  • WTS clearlly those People played to much World of warcraft

  • im a furry and i dont think im an animal....... is there something wrong with me

  • They look so adorable!

  • My name is Minyu Hachino, and I aprove this message.

  • Aww they look like they're having fun!

  • Okay. There are tons of really amazing and very realistic furry costumes out there. Yet the HAD TO use these abominations for a National Geographic program? That's what gives furries a bad name.

  • TA BAR NACK.

  • there are totally hundreds of other ways to make u feel better about urself than this..

    by starting to think how to make urself "useful" and worthy in life.. use the intelligence u got.. and make the world "become" a better place.. devote ur life to help those who are helpless.. HELP animals instead of making a joke out of ur life and leading a pointless hollow life.. dont wish to be an animal, for animals follow instinct alone they cant choose whats right and wrong, unlike human with the brain

  • @zOozii84 I'm sorry that you're too ignorant to allow people to partake in a harmless activity that doesn't affect you without writing them off as "making a joke of their lives". You know who's a joke? People who can't accept differences like yourself.

  • @Numbuh7

    and how would i be not allowing u to do what u've chosen.. why dont u accept criticism ? u got offended when i didnt agree with this act and expressed how i felt about it.. you do not accept opinions of people who find u different ! and u talk to me about ignorance..

    im sorry anyhows if i was harsh and offended or hurted ur feelings..

    but i wz just trying to give a piece of advice to those who'd want it..

    peace

  • @Numbuh7 There's also the aspect about making others feel uncomfortable. I'm not going to be an asshole to someone who's a furry, but I'm also probably not too keen on walking up to one and having a conversation with one, like I would with a normal looking fellow. But I guess to each his own.

  • i think its silly :)

    and resulting from a total lack of confidence..........

    and i feel sorry for those who think that "belonging" in something silly like that would gain them any sort of confidence..

  • um....................

  • You know what I think is weird?

    Sitting on YouTube and mocking others.

  • @justinsreality and thus you mock youtubers who mock youtubers...

  • And thus, America dies...

  • Wtf?????  WTF???

  • Nice family reunion photos!

  • Furries turn really different when Rule 34 is on

  • Comment removed

  • I too believe they are not entirely human

  • come ON!!!

  • NUT!!

  • As long as they don't revolt against the new world order by exposing it is the Jews behind it, I'm fine with them furries.

    The more sub-cultures there are in Jewnited states of America the better because we can stay in control.

  • Not for me, BUT do what makes you happy. :)

  • Dafuq?

  • LMFAO

  • LOL furries.

  • do they make furriesex too , because if not this doesnt make sense to me..

  • haha thats cool

  • Furfaggotry

  • ......

  • HA HA HAHAHAHAHAHA HA HAHAHAHHA HA HA HA HA HAHAHAHA HAHAHA HAHAHA HA HA HAH AHAHAHA HA HAHAHAHHA HA HA HA HAHAHAHAHAHAH AHA HAHAHA HA HAHAHA HAHAHA HA HAHAHAHHA HA HA HA HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA HAHAHA HA HAHAHAHAHAHA HA HAHAHAHHA HA HAAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA HA HAHAHAHA HA HAHAHAHHA HA HA HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA HA HAHAHAHAHAHA HA HAHAHAHHA HA HA HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA HA HAHAHAHAHAHA HA HAHAHAHHA HA HA HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA HA HAHAHAHAHAHA HA HAHAHAHHA HA HA HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHA

  • 85% believe they're not entirely human? I can't say I've met a single furry that believes that... Come on NatGeo, I love you guys, but really? >:O

  • @WCdragoninja well i guess they were trying to make furrys look weird for a "compelling" news story. basically, there is a reason why news stations tend to report more bad news than good, simply, people are entertained by "bad" things more than "good" things unfortunately. i guess they figured showing realistic about he furry fandom would be too boring.

  • @evilcuppycake1112 Make it if you can draw or search it around in the internet so I can yiff you with my black dragon fursona.. xD

  • I find this quite sad. That people have to result to "not being themselves" just to feel more outgoing and confident. Hmm, whatever floats your boat I guess.

  • @kristiannelikes Trust me, this is a very small portion of the furry fandom.

  • He looks older than 24 ... wow

  • wow u amercans are fucking crazy!! lol wtf

  • @mossman2012 you do understand the furry fandom doesn't exist i just America right?

  • I dislike it when people distinguish "child's play" from this fake idea of an 'adult form'. We are the same people we were when we were 9, just with more responsibilities. As long as you are a responsible, respectful, safe individual, you should never be too old to use your imagination and be silly.

    The problems arise when neither the average person OR the furry is respectful, and both and up being annoying to everyone. It's just like any other world culture, live and let live.

  • @MujakiKid Exactly. I'm a firm believer that if you find something to be both fun AND harmless, fucking go for it, you know? Like watching cartoons and dressing up and generally just doing what's fun. The way I see it, I would rather enjoy doing a bunch of crazy shit then hold the regret on my death bed, wondering what life would've been like if I just did what was fun. We get one chance at life. Live.

  • Whatever melts your butter.

  • I guess people making asses of themselves "performing" for your entertainment makes for better TV than a guy just casually doodling something while you interview him. THAT would really be closer to the "85%" of the fandom. Seriously, where the hell did they get that number?

  • @RastaTherian Come on man, anyone with half a brain knows damn well this is exaggerated. I mean, casual furs wouldn't really draw an audience now would they? Oh you draw cartoon animals YOU'RE SO MILD EWWW.

  • Furry Pride!

  • we rule! ^^

  • Hey i killed this guy in Saints row the 3rd :3

  • FUCKIN FREAKS! i know this stuff makes them happy but for fuck sake, people like this shouldn't be allowed to reproduce!

  • @skaterflip88 Trust me, reporters go around looking for idiots like these. I can surely say, we're not all likes these idiots. Sometimes I wish I wasn't part of the same things these moronic faggots are.

  • @skaterflip88 i think not being able to reproduce turned them into furries. just look at those adonises lol

  • He needs to get out more -___-

  • @Surena310 the only thing is that furries behind the suit are sometimes shy people.

  • @ mentholholic Got wat u said.What I'd also find odd is if when they mean "there pt. animal" they mean they have therianthropistic powers (.morphing in2 animals like in folklore & mythology).I mean even nominally normy ppl say there animals sometime or do stuff based on animals.Ex.the five animals martial arts,saying u were "beast" out there ,getting hyped to "Eye of the tiger" song etc.Embracing animalistic aspects is common 2 all human cultures & furrydom's mostly just a performance art

  • When i saw the title, and its by nat geo, i thought no, it couldnt be that, must be about animals. Good god

  • @LeksServices kool $tory bruh

  • This comes out in saints row the third lol

  • EXTERMINATE

  • What's wrong with furries? I'm a robot. I don't see anything wrong with furries. If anything, it's us robots that are strange. There aren't many of us around, it seems. I've met dozens of furries, but know only one other robot.

    And by "robot," I mean I want to be a robot. It would be awesome to be a robot. I wouldn't have to eat or drink or sleep. I would not have to worry about the whims of my body. I would not have to worry about going potty. And I could be repaired. It would rock!

  • Furries creep me the fuck out

    Especially this one person I know that thinks he's a cat

    90 percent of the furries I've seen are homosexuals

  • part human, part jobless

  • They always show that awkward fat guy when doing stuff about furries. Or that guy who believe he's a dog. Show someone who doesn't give a fuck and doesn't believe he's an animal.

  • i'm for this. on the list of weird stuff in the world and things that hurt your body to make you feel better - drugs, alcohol, etc - this (appears) to hurt no one. if dressing up makes you feel better, go right ahead.

  • welcome to the internet people, where furries have been its cancerous tumor for quite a while

  • Seems like something else Christians have to write in their bibles to exclude this shit too.

  • 85% is a way high number. With being highly involved in the furry fandom I would have to say that 25% or lower think that they are part animal. I would love to see where they get there facts from.

  • @marshalpeck - I think 85% is about right. Perhaps a little low.

  • Thank you NG, at least someone is showing the furry fandom in a positive light.

  • Umm....okay.

  • I liked it =)

  • his name is Courtney : /

  • Awkward as shit.

  • No matter how factual National Geographic tries to be, this just creeps me out even more.

  • Creepy.

  • o_o

  • Wait a minute.... I thought 'furry' was a type of porn.... This changes everything

  • this guy is like a god ( and is not creepy to dress up like the way he feels )

  • Depply inside thats why we are playing Games...(Video games)

  • I just can't imagine that they will soon make a documentary about "BRONIES"...

    damn...

  • Thank you National Geographic, for further making enlarging the furry fandom bulls-eye. On of these days, the picking on and trolling will come to a peak, some furry will commit suicide as a result, and then you'll really have a story. But what do you care? You already have your money.

  • @Mavuriku i'm pretty sure thats what we all want

  • @vizard202 For furries to commit suicide?

  • 2:37 "I'm not in the closet so to speak..."

    The hell you aren't!

  • Socially speaking, I believe adopting a fursona would be very liberating indeed. It looks like fun. >:oD

  • Creeps

  • He's a grad student working on his PH.D and a kitten on the weekends

  • I want to p
