Fur and feather, claw, fang, hoof and tail: the boundary that separates us from beasts is sometimes a blurred one, and our interaction with them has always been constant. Since the earliest of times, animals have therefore played a fundamental role in folklore and oral tradition. In this category you will find legends and folktales in which beasts, wild or domestic, take centre stage: animals embodying human virtues and flaws, wondrous companions and fearsome adversaries.
