[@chipperP]

+Paige Lord Yep, that mask rocks!

[@spookyduck8761]

Srry if this comes off rude but its not a mask, its a fursuit head

[@aamaterasu4790]

I think the reason why it looks so nice is that it was made by someone very experienced and used with airbrush tools.

[@mintgreen5614]

Even if im not a furry, im happy to finally see that the news says something positive about ths subject.

[@TheEmeraldCreeper]

every one who understands furries is happy to see that

[@governmentshugedick8735]

What have they done to you...

[@YellowStarLine]

Yeah, I know you have those horrid furries which ruined our reputation, but it's nice to see they are shining new light on good people and not focusing on the bad people, and I'm embarrassed that those horrible people are even considering themselves to be apart of our fandom like just leave you bloody zoophile! We don't want you bringing us bad luck, but anyways it's good they're focusing on the good furries

[@NileByTheMiles]

I am happy to say it was a great joint effort from pretty much everyone to give ourselves a good image. Made me want to continue to be a good representative, and prepare to answer all questions thrown at me.

[@mijailyo7474]

It is one of the best and most respectful videos I have ever watched about the furry community. Plus the people being there was being pretty nice and funny, and their costumes were amazing!

[@PandasBabyKoala]

Yay Fisk! You did an amazing job with the interview, and so did everyone else! Way to go everyone! I hope to see all my furry friends back next year. That means you too Fisk! =^.^=

[@SM-sj6hj]

Canadians are just so damn nice though! In America, people are biased. In Canada, I bet people are a lot nicer!

[@MothsWing]

It might just be because we don't have freedom of speech :P

[@bubblesyay854]

Well i'm in canada and we too have alot of shootings, murders, you just don't hear it was much because we are around 30 million people in canada all together xD so i guess less crazeh people? Idkz. We just tend to say sorry to almost everything haha :)

[@lillyg736]

It's a Cheetah actually~

[@ameaj6820]

It's a cheetah, you dunce.

[@AwesomeYena]

Look at the markings and the type of snout, cheetah dude..

[@fluffehskyla3316]

I HATE THAT DANG CSI SCENE! IT'S STUPID, AND IT REALLY MAKES FURS LOOK BAD! It angers me so much to see furs being hated and attack over being known as 'sexual' even though over 50% of the fandom is trying to ignore that side. I wish people could see furries for more than sexual animals, because there's SOOOOOOO much more to the fandom than that.

[@d3adl1mbs66]

FluffehSkyla well the writers know that sex sells

[@lennywantsbooty2401]

FluffehSkyla my favorite episode:)

[@cakestalker]

Yeah, it reminds me of that stupid and ignorant Law & Order SVU episode about gamers :|

[@glenngriffon8032]

I mean yeah, sex is a part of the fandom but it's a minority. Besides which if you look into ANY aspect of human culture you're going to find sex. There's people out there who wanna fuck a shoe but that doesn't mean every person who puts their foot in a shoe is a shoe fucking pervert. Nor is every foot specialist and hoe salesman a shoe fucker. There's people out there who draw porn of the starship enterprise for gods sake. No, not the crew, I mean the actual ship anthropomorphized and sexed up.

[@nodak81]

So *only* one in two of you is a sexual deviant? lol

That cheetah suit is freaking awesome. I love how the mouth moves, it's fantastic.

I'm not even a furry and I think the conventions are awesome! I love drawing anthro as well as costume design, so I'm exited, and hoping to visit a furry convention sometime~ hopefully in suit, if I ever manage to finish mine! XD

[@whimsom]

0:48 I like their explaintion for being a furry. Im not a furry

[@ShimoGames]

Guys, don't worry about being a fur, who cares what people think of you. I'm sure every furry has at least once thought "what do people think of me" and all that. But after a while, you'll be proud of ... being you.

[@Anna464]

I really love the fact that they aren't trying to rip it down or promoting it. They let the viewers work their opinion on it.

[@ArtByKarenEHaley]

I've just started making my first suit, mainly because I want to go to ren and fantasy fairs as a gryphon, I'm in Keizer, so you're not totally alone~ I used to work in the Salem Center Mall and I saw cosplayers there frequently, as well as one fursuiter- a lion. I got a hug! That was before the Clackamas Town Center shooting though; I'm guessing we aren't allowed to go to SCM with masks on anymore.

[@GarouLady]

Thanks for posting this. I don't know if its a white cheetah or a snow leopard but that mask and outfit is totally to die for!! Soo handsome and well made. I am totally deliciously envious and jealous. Anyone know how much a head piece like that would run??

[@PotterYouRotter7]

A girl at my work was bad talking on furries, saying they're weird and creepy and stuff. Then a couple of girls came in wearing fluffy hats and tails. I started talking to them because (obviously, me being a furry) I wanted to talk to them. You should have seen the girl-I-work-with's expression. Her face when I just blatantly starting talking about being a furry. Priceless.

[@Shikyorei]

To see in a fursuit: If a suit has the "toony" eyes, the pupils are cut out and replaced with a mesh fabric to see thru. The more realistic resin eyes can't be seen thru, so you see thru the tearducts, also thru a mesh fabric.

[@ferociousgumby]

My God! Shannon Paterson is a genius reporter.

[@SakuraFoxFurry]

The thing that stresses me out the most is how society views sex. People treat sex like it is a terrible thing. IT IS NOT. Why must we be secretive about it? Why must it be a threat to our jobs? Why must we be taught that it is bad and that if we have sex, have thoughts about sex, ECT. that we are terrible people? I remember when I was younger, I got caught looking at something sexual and I got punished for it. The punishment? My parent's taking away the mouse and keyboard. Why? Because I was looking at sexual content. That is the reason....and I keep asking myself...WHY? I seriously thought they would never let me back on the internet, but eventually it happened. Also, I WAS at the legal age for America. I seriously fail to see why people think that sex is so bad. I could have been participating in illegal activities, THAT is something to worry about, but I have respect for myself and my family and I would never partake in such activities. There are people who get away with Animal abuse, child abuse, elderly abuse, illegal drugs,, the list goes on and on and on...but no...none of that matters because people are having sexual thoughts about their boyfriends and girlfriends...really? The public needs to wake up and realize that sex is NORMAL and HEALTHY. Stop slut shaming us and dedicate your time and energy to something worthwhile.

[@ChilloHaus]

*IN CSI's DEFENCE* as directors, producers, writers, and actors they have artistic licence, so they are allowed to change facts to make their script (CSI is not based on real events; it is fiction) *no one ever said that episode was true or that they made it to showcase the truth behind the fandom.* PEOPLE are to blame when it comes to misconceptions about furries. They don't check their facts and/or deliberately choose to hate on folks and hence, do things like forget fiction (CSI) is not fact, or listen to the crap people give furries and not try to understand it for themselves.

[@kira-cg4hb]

Nik Nak yes i agree but CSI thingy made people who are too dumb to know wether it was true or not think thats what goes on at furry conventions and it obviously hurt a lot of peoples feelings

[@galaxybutt]

no they took the modified version and threw it away

Woah, you made that? That's amazing either or. Freaken badass.

[@Darkfoxdemonx]

it's all in how you think of yourself. I'm into all kinds of art and costumes including cosplay, and movie costumery. and as for art, well I draw tons of things, anthro just happens to be one of my favorite art genres (as well as anime, chibi, abstract, semi-realistic, and original) being a therian though, gives me a more spiritual connection with animals, and so I can't quite see myself as a furry, but I enjoy the neat things the furry fandom has to offer~

[@WolfOfTheWillowKmm]

I havn't been to a convention or anything myself, but to go to a con ya just gotta pre order the tickets to my knowledge. Orrrr you can go up to the front door and buy the ticket there (anyone correct me if im wrong, im basing this off of the comic con). As for yiff- yiff is all the sexual bs people think furries do and isnt true- so dont venture into that for sure.

[@briskthehusky9545]

WolfOfTheWillow Kmm alright thanks... : )

[@WolfOfTheWillowKmm]

Danny Garcia no prob :)

[@KemonoGoddess]

+Brisk The Husky buy your tickets onlin or at the door. always arrive early to get in line ect. mostly every one order there tickets online with paypal. since you begin 13 you have to have a parent or legal guardian to come with you. order it for you online and arrive to the con with you in person. have fun :D
