With all do respect to you land lovers i like my wings. But i’m worried do i count within the furry community. On the one hand my persona is an anthropomorphic bird, on the other i have feathers not fur

        Good point, but birds only have one mass extinction separating them from lizards, whereas mammals have two.

        Also, cursory Google search suggests that the consensus opinion is that hair and feathers are an example of convergent evolution, although the timeline is so tight that they could have split off from each other when mammals and dinosaurs split off from the therapsids.
