It seems a person, Mark Merlino, involved in getting the first conventions going passed away the other day. So it made me think, was the emergence inevitable.

There were going to be communities dedicated to talking animals on the internet, that much is certain. Just about everything else was shaped by early founders. Aside from the furry fandom's very existence which may be inevitable, every part of its shape and characteristics were laid by people like Sysable.
