bipedalism in moonbear hybrid - question! - Tasmagoric - 01-18-2021
Would it be alright to have my Asian black bear/Wolf hybrid character occasionally stand on two legs? Moonbears are known to be the most bipedal of bear species and can walk up to a quarter-mile [mostly seen in circus acts] Not very fast on two legs and a bit clumsy so they will be mostly quadruped.

I'm going to have to say no if they're walking on both legs all the time, especially seeing that they only walk for a short amount of time on their back legs. Given that this is also a hybrid with a wolf, their legs would be substantially weaker also. Along with that our rules explicitly state that any unnatural bipedals are against the rules.
Standing occasionally on their hind legs would be fine though. This would be for VERY short distances or to grab items within taller spaces.

IV. Furries(animals with characteristic qualities) and unrealistic bipedals are not allowed. Realistic bipedals, kangaroos and birds for an example, are allowed.

Ah, I gotcha that makes sense. Okie dokie, that's all I needed to know and I wanted to make sure prior to posting to not cross that rule. Thank you for clarifying! ♡
