ANCIENT FURRIES WEBSITE???

I want to revive this project in some way in a way thats more comunity oriented and not just me scowering for old anthro art once every few months when i get motivated to. It would be really cool if it had its own website and i was thinking a booru like e621 would actually be a great fit. that way people can find their own examples of historical anthro art and everything can be tagged and organized and souced and be much easier to search through. Let me know if this is something yall would be interested in and if anyone has any experience or advice as to how we could do this.

Since they are TECHNICALLY horse figures, just on a much larger scale, do you have any carousel horses that you're fond of?

No horses that I can think of, but I've always loved the carousel cow from Bonbon Land

She's the mascot of the now-retired "Store Babser" (Big Tits) gummy candy and back in the 90s/00s she was featured prominently throughout the amusement park and in products. They only made one (1) figure of her, though, and it's very high up on my wishlist

The ad for her candy is in this compilation at 0:52

I haven't been to Bonbon Land since I was like 12, since it's very much a kids amusement park, but back then they'd removed her from the carousel (and the saloon I think?), and all that remained of her was the statue at the main square :(

Harry Fonseca 1979, “Coyote, When Coyote Leaves the Res”

Acrylic on canvas

Harry Fonseca began his art career using imagery from his Native American Maidu heritage in his art. His Coyote Series of paintings started in 1979. These works use the coyote as the trickster of Maidu ancestral stories, depicted in nontraditional clothing and settings. In this painting Coyote is dressed in black leather and other aspects of queer-dress experienced by the artist in San Francisco, expressing Fonseca's personal narrative as a gay Native American living off-reservation.
