I'm wondering if there is a difference between the terms anthro and furry. Can somebody please tell me?

Anthro is ANYTHING that is normally not human given human-like traits, wheras Furry simply means an Anthropomorphic Animal of any kind.
Anthro is the more broader term for a furry. Hopefully this answers your question.

Ok, thanks for answering my question
I usually use "anthro" more than "furry" so I'm glad I know the difference now

I'd say that furry is a fandom or subculture (and the member of it is called so)... an identity. It defines a person, not a character I believe, as a character that belongs to a furry is rather called a fursona, and they can be either animals and fantasy creatures and also plants(really, I've seen some even if they're rare, which means furry doesn't mean an anthro ANIMAL) etc.
I bet that Orwel wasn't a furry nor the characters from the Animal Farm were BTW... and the same with other animal fable writers and characters. etc. And those were fully anthro animals: had human mental traits and often walked on two. I won't believe that all the fairytales for children are furry xD Or like 90% of children(from somehow civilised countries) are furries, hahah xD Native Americans were furries then too, they also identified with animals and stuffxD so NO. I definitely don't support the overly broad furry definition that covers all anthro animals...
Besides, I don't think it's logical to actually cover all anthro animals, regardless of belonging to furry community or not, under a term that derived from a word that means 'covered in fur'. It's not a perfect term for all anthro animals, even though furries accept non-furried creatures too, not to exclude anyone...
Also, you don't say 'I'm an anthro'(if you don't say this reffering to your id-character but to your human self only) but you can say 'I'm a furry'(if you refer to the human self again), I bet there is a difference then.

Yeah, I see your point XD and I don't think Animal Farm is the same either, they're pretty much talking animals most the time anyways (that is, until the end)

Nice stamp!
Personally I prefer the term "furry", haven't met anyone yet who was averse to it. Really anything can be anthro, from an animal to a toaster, lamp, vacuum cleaner, radio . . .

I honestly don't see a difference between "anthro" and "furry," but anthro isn't a loaded term, as furry is.

anthro is an animal with human characteristics

Yay for anthros! As far as I can gather, all furries are anthro, but not all anthro are furries, although I'm sure there's exceptions. I think furries are more involved with being representative of an actual person, while anthro are simply any objects/plants/animals made more human. =^.^=

Personally, I'm okay with "furry". Remember, "anthro" can mean anything humanized -- remember The Brave Little Toaster ? That was anthro!

Hey, ummm.... what's the diffirence between a furry and an anthro. I know that the diffirence is notable, but i doubt that all furries are perverted zoophiles as some of these comments make them out to be.
