Have you actually read any "serious" furry literature that makes use of animals as symbols or as alien viewpoints vis-a-vis humanity? If not let me suggest that you begin with "Watership Down". There are other examples of furry literary art--- and I emphasize art here-- as well. It's a growingly important part of the fandom, and more of our authors are gaining in stature in both our own subculture and the mainstream every year.
