Incidentally the exact point where it is to ambiguous to know if it is Feral (Furry) character or non-anthropomphic animal is when it should NOT be tagged Feral, leave it to the anatomy tags that aren't ambiguous. And that shouldn't be surprising as it is the same ethic applied across the site with Tag What You See.

Here we use feral/anthro/humanoid/human to depict the purely physical features running from "animal" to "human."

A feral fox has their fur, paws, muzzle, ears, etc - despite any particular intelligent behavior or clothing...or those features being in some way exaggerated (more human/larger eyes for example).

And anthro fox may have hands, stand on two legs, even a more human-shaped face.

A humanoid fox would be effectively human, but with just a few fox features: ears, tail, teeth, and/or whiskers.

I think rather than a new category *instead* of feral, we just need a tag equivolent to anatomically_correct that describes when the entire creature is depicted with real-world accuracy which can be added in addition to the feral tag when applicable.
