Civilized Animals exhibit some form of cultured, well-mannered behavior, but otherwise occupy their species's natural role in the ecosystem and (especially) the food chain. They generally display half the mannerisms of a civilized human character and half the mannerisms of a wild animal character. They may wear clothes (often being accessory wearing, half dressed or even barefoot, but otherwise fully-dressed), or may live in houses, and are frequently depicted as walking on two legs; but their anthropomorphism stops abruptly at this point, as their everyday concerns are for ordinary activities such as catching prey and avoiding predation by larger animals. A Civilized Animal can be a pet — a child could just as well play with the pet throwing stick at them or pulling out a game console and playing together. Civilized Animals are typical of children's stories, especially that of British literature. Like Funny Animals, Civilized Animals usually have a body that is generally shaped like that of their respective species, even though they are typically bipedal and sometimes human-sized. Civilized Animals, like Funny Animals, tend to be bipedal even if their species is not naturally so, and most Civilized Animal birds have Feather Fingers, whether their wings look completely like wings or look like arms. Many Civilized Animals can shift between using two legs and four. Civilized Animals can be anywhere on the Sliding Scale of Animal Communication. A related trope is Mouse World. Civilized Animals differ from their neighbors on the Sliding Scale of Anthropomorphism as follows: A Funny Animal has most or even all the mannerisms of a human character, and generally if replaced by a human, the plot will be mostly or even nearly identical. A Partially Civilized Animal exhibits some form of civilized behavior, but is more likely to have a minimally anthropomorphized body shape and the majority of the mannerisms are ones you would expect in an animal. Talking Animals, Intellectual Animals and Speech Impaired Animals have all the body shape and mannerisms of the animal; their anthropomorphism is strictly limited to the fact that they talk, have human-like sapience and in some cases walk on two legs. This is not to be confused with Beast Man, which is for a species that for some reason bears a resemblance to an Earth animal, despite not being related. |

In The Emerald City of Oz (one of the later Oz books) there were a group of rabbits who had been civilized and live in a town called Bunnybury; their king expresses himself as nostalgic for being a natural rabbit and living in a hole in the ground: | |

Satchel, Bucky, and in fact almost all animals (wild or domesticated) in Get Fuzzy. What keeps them from being placed higher up on the scale is the fact that wild animals still occupy their natural role in the ecosystem, and pets like Bucky and Satchel are normally treated as such by most humans, despite otherwise being fully sapient, capable of human speech, and usually walking on two legs. Apparently, What Measure Is a Non-Human? is in full effect. | |

The Felynes from the Monster Hunter series sit somewhere between this and Funny Animal. Some go around naked while others can be found fully clothed, and they have their own meowing language. On the other hand, they also work and fight alongside humans, and can wield swords despite appearing to lack opposable thumbs. Oh, and they can get high on Felvine. | |

MS Paint Adventures: Problem Sleuth: The Weasels and the Hogs are obviously sentient, but not anthropomorphic enough to be Funny Animals. On the one hand, they so civilized they have their own kingdoms. On the other hand, they look far from humans, wear little to no clothes and eat animals' food. Homestuck: Salamanders, crocodiles, turtles and iguanas can communicate with human characters (the mini-game with John on Land of Wind and Shade shows this especially well). They also have their own cultures — and in the Act 6, we see a lot of cultural artifacts made by them. But they look like animals and usually don't wear clothes. Other characters (except for Caliborn, who is a bad guy) don't kill and usually try to protect them, but see them as the most stupid creatures in the universe. John even stole one of salamanders (Casey or Viceroy Bubbles Von Salamancer) and gave her to Rose, as if she was just an animal. |

Many of the Wesen in Grimm are essentially animalistic werebeasts acting according to their animal behavior, but others left that to live normally and peacefully among humans keeping The Masquerade, like most of the wolf-like Blutbaten. Monroe himself confess (with certain shame) that he use to be much violent and hunted humans. This even comes to play in some episodes as much more traditional Wesen consider this losing their identity and animal instincts. | |

The Redwall books, with "good" species being quite close to next animal anthropomorphism stage. Birds and vermin species, on the other hand, are somewhat more animalistic. Still, although the "good" species such as the mice live in a monastic community or in village communities, they have plenty of mannerisms one would normally associate with their species. The mice are cheese connoisseurs-they make a dizzying variety-and love food in general. The hares are fast, fast talking as well as fast running. The badgers are curmudgeonly, but fierce fighters with a strong sense of justice. | |

Kevin & Kell's universe is a World of Funny Animals in which they're still very obviously animals. The series is full of Furry Reminders, with the very premise deconstructing Carnivore Confusion. Kevin and Kell are an inter-species couple (wolf and rabbit) in a world where it's normal for anthropomorphic animals to hunt other anthropomorphic animals. It's also shown that characters who leave civilization immediately revert to being quadrupeds, implying they're not quite as physically anthropomorphic as they're drawn. | |

Looney Tunes: Many of the animal characters, including Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Wile E. Coyote, and Sylvester the Cat and Tweety Bird. Bugs Bunny belongs in this trope. Although his behavior is entirely human, he still lives in a burrow and has to worry about being hunted or eaten. There was an odd situation in the cartoon "Hare Splitter" where Bugs and his rival live in furnished burrows and wear only their fur, while their contested girlfriend lives in a frame house and is fully dressed. In a segment of The Looney Tunes Show, Bugs must prove he is a real rabbit to a group of "actual" rabbits (who are Talking Animals). As a Civilized Animal, Bugs is mostly able to perform the tasks the other rabbits ask of him but always pulls them off in an oddly "human" way (like digging a burrow that looks like an "outdated condo"). The same applies to Daffy Duck (although he tends towards Funny Animal in later works), and a lot of other Looney Tunes animal characters. Sylvester's characterization ranged from being a normal cat to being a Funny Animal, but he usually fit either this trope or the Talking Animal trope. |

In the G1 and G2 eras of My Little Pony era the ponies were this. For example, early into the franchise they slept outside or in sheds but by the early 90s they were sleeping in houses and eating human food. Despite that they still largely acted like ponies, especially in the first of the My Little Pony TV Specials. In G3 the ponies became borderline Funny Animals however G4 heavily scaled down on it, though they're still more anthropomorphic than in G1. | |

Animaniacs: Slappy and Skippy Squirrel exemplify this trope because they live in a tree and fight predator animals while still walking on two legs, talking, and sometimes wearing clothes. Rita the cat is also a good example of this trope, she walks on two legs, manipulates things in her paws like they were human hands, talks, and wears clothes and accessories (albeit rarely), but is treated like a normal cat for the most part in the episodes she stars in. Even though Minerva Mink is a full-on Funny Animal complete with a human frame, in the two episodes she actually starred in, she lives in a log in a forest and Newt tried to hunt her in one of those two episodes. Minerva's foe, Newt the dog plays this trope much straighter. He is portrayed as having an owner in "Meet Minerva" and "Puttin On The Blitz," but unlike most of the other dogs in the show, he often walks on two legs and manipulates things in his paws like they were human hands. |

The animals in Animal Land are Partially Civilized Animal and it is the main goal of Tarouza to turn the world into this trope, he is on the way there by teaching many animals to farm and live in harmony together while eating the Eternal Fruit (that even meat-eating animals find to be delicious). The rest of the world still needs a lot of work, though. | |

Homestuck: Salamanders, crocodiles, turtles and iguanas can communicate with human characters (the mini-game with John on Land of Wind and Shade shows this especially well). They also have their own cultures — and in the Act 6, we see a lot of cultural artifacts made by them. But they look like animals and usually don't wear clothes. Other characters (except for Caliborn, who is a bad guy) don't kill and usually try to protect them, but see them as the most stupid creatures in the universe. John even stole one of salamanders (Casey or Viceroy Bubbles Von Salamancer) and gave her to Rose, as if she was just an animal. | |

The Raccoons: At the beginning of the series the episodes started with the lives of a forest ranger and his children living in a shack with two dogs, unaware that their dogs are sentient and actually (well, one of them) can talk and walk and have a friendship with forest animals that live in a pretty civilized environment with buildings, roads and automobiles. Cyril Sneer’s mansion, for example, is much bigger and luxurious that the ranger’s humble shack. One can only wonder how the ranger never sees any of this, he should be very lazy at his work. | |

Luxor from Tutenstein can speak, is a loyal servant to the Pharoah, and sometimes walks on 2 legs and engages in human-like behaviors (for example, being able to run an ice cream machine in "Bedhety Late Than Never") but he generally acts like a normal cat and is Cleo's pet. It's implied the Scepter of Was gave him these human behaviors including being able to speak (he was a normal cat before Tut was awakened). | |

The ancient Greek Batrachomyomachia makes this trope Older Than Feudalism: it's a mock epic parodying works in the genre like the Iliad, and it does so by replacing the heroic figures with talking mice and frogs. They definitely still behave like animals in some respects, but they wear armor, carry tiny spears, and generally act 'civilized' throughout the 300-line poem. | |

While most mammals in the Spellsinger series are Funny Animals, those which lack manipulative digits (hoofed animals other than pigs, cetaceans) seem more like this trope. They don't wear clothing aside from the purely-functional (armor in battle, tack when carrying goods for others) and mostly socialize with their own kind, unlike the cosmopolitan Funny Animal species. | |

Bugs Bunny belongs in this trope. Although his behavior is entirely human, he still lives in a burrow and has to worry about being hunted or eaten. There was an odd situation in the cartoon "Hare Splitter" where Bugs and his rival live in furnished burrows and wear only their fur, while their contested girlfriend lives in a frame house and is fully dressed. In a segment of The Looney Tunes Show, Bugs must prove he is a real rabbit to a group of "actual" rabbits (who are Talking Animals). As a Civilized Animal, Bugs is mostly able to perform the tasks the other rabbits ask of him but always pulls them off in an oddly "human" way (like digging a burrow that looks like an "outdated condo"). | |

A horror version of the trope, as in literature, can be found in the various film adaptations of The Island of Doctor Moreau, (namely Island of Lost Souls (1932), The Island of Dr. Moreau (1977), The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996)), which tell of a Mad Scientist trying to create uplifted animals that will be more like humans, but end up as hideous, uncanny instances of this trope. Most adaptations leave out or downplay the social commentary behind H. G. Wells' original work. | |

In the Happy Happy Clover anime and manga, the main characters (mostly rabbits) are mostly seen walking on two legs with the exception of running where it involves running on fours. The rabbit characters are mostly seen walking on two legs when they are inside a home, burrow, or tree. Every character acts human like, however characters that would show up in later volumes of the manga such as Luna The Rabbit and his music band are seen wearing vests and hats. While the other characters are never seen wearing any and are only seen wearing them during special events at Crescent Forest. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Sonic himself is not an example of this trope, nor are most of the main characters in the games. The tiny animals who are freed from the badniks however, are this behaving mostly like the animals they represent and occasionally walking on hind legs. The students in the non-canon PC edutainment title Sonic's Schoolhouse, who mention that they have realistic animal eating habits, etc in the field trip videos. |

The Gummi Bears are not only civilized bears in their universe, they are said to be more civilized than humans: they developed advance engineering and technology in the Middle Ages, built large cities and where capable of transoceanic travel much earlier than humans. | |

Most of the animals in Infinity Train. The corgis in "The Corgi Car" and the turtles in "The Unfinished Car" have their own monarchies, while The Cat is running a new business/con every time that we meet her. They all wear limited clothes and generally walk on all fours, though. | |

Bad Mermaids: Steve the sea horse is the only sea creature in Hidden Lagoon who can talk. Beattie's mum, the explorer Belinda Shelton, found him near a shipwreck and took him home as a souvenir. He wears glasses, lives in a pair of dentures, and is obsessed with Hidden Lagoon's most popular cartoon, The Clippee Show. | |

Gromit, of Wallace & Gromit, is a bit of an odd case: he alternates between acting like a dog and acting like a person, he often acts as a direct partner to Wallace, who seems to consider him a peer at the very least, and he never talks, making it hard to pin him in either category. In general, he seems to have fully human intelligence and capabilities aside from his lack of speech, but is content to act doglike when relaxed. Shorts tend to vary by Rule of Funny on whether people consider Gromit to be sapient or not, though characters actually treating him like a dog is usually shown as patronizing. | |

The eponymous equines of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic occupy a weird, nebulous intermediary zone between this and Funny Animal. On the one hand, they live in houses and in a lot of ways their day-to-day lives paint them more as quadrupedal humans than mildly anthropomorphic horses. On the other, the creators researched a lot of horse behavior and incorporated it into the characters' body language, Rarity's song "Art Of The Dress" and the accompanying visuals account for equine physiology in a way that also betrays extensive research, and wherever possible they avoided having the ponies use their hooves for fine manipulation. | |

In Yokoka's Quest, Kalliv's family appear to occupy the space between Talking Animal (they slept huddled together as mice, in a hollowed out tree, and Kalliv was snatched away to be eaten) and Funny Animal (the walls of their home had household objects and a written notice attached to them), though Kalliv mentions they would "go to the market and stuff" in their demon forms.

A lot of the humour of Paddington (2014) and Paddington 2 come from playing with boundaries of this trope and Funny Animal. Back home in Darkest Peru, Paddington and his family - all talking bears - lived in the jungle eating wild oranges, with no human contact, and were more in line with this trope. When Paddington is forced to move to England, he becomes more of a Funny Animal, living alongside humans in a major city, who - despite having never seen a talking bear wearing a hat before - all take it in stride, sometimes even suggesting that this might be fairly commonplace in the setting. | |

The sentient canid species in Wurr (at least the two to which we've been officially introduced). No clothing beyond the occasional collar, and very canine body language and (for the most part) behavior.

Tales of Kaimere: Kaimere is a Multicultural Alien Planet that not only has various Human Subspecies, but also several Intellectual Animal. Out of the various species, three are considered sophont with their own multi-generational culture and even having their own witches and Assembly members working alongside the native Kaimerans and humans from Earth. The first to be encountered are the Notzokidue, or the Crow Folk of Pakardia. The descendants of flightless pterosaurs, the Crowfolk use tools developed on their own or picked up from archaic humans. Their focus is mainly on creating art from paintings to sculptures. The second are the Manephaunts, dwarf elephants that live peacefully on their islands. They rely mainly on scent for communication, with occasional noise or visual display for hard-of-smelling members or for fashion. They are a peaceful race that only uses weapons in self-defense against megaraptors that arrive by sea. The third are the Skraa'aae, a species of theropods from the Eastern Continent of Kairul. They not only have a long history of tool use for hunting but are adept and fast at learning and speaking human languages. |

In Fantastic Mr. Fox, all the animals work in jobs, wear clothes, and use modern technology. However, they have animal lifespans, don't use utensils, make their houses in places like holes and trees, and the foxes still dig. It's a plot point that they're "wild animals" despite their civilised lifestyle. Near the end, Mr. Fox and his crew briefly encounter a seemingly completely non-anthropomorphized wolf. Mr. Fox attempts to make contact with it in several languages, to which it responds with nothing. Just before leaving, Mr. Fox lifts his fist in acknowledgement, and the wolf finally reacts, matching the motion politely before leaving. |
