          One of the few “kids” shows who treated their audience with upmost respect, never talked down to the audience, and knew that kids are able to see and understand heavy topics. the suicide episode still haunts me on how incredibly good it was.

          Yes, I will die on the hill that a show about farting animals is genuinely a must watch for everyone.

            I was stoned out of my gourd one day after work, and the friend that talked up Steven Universe (warning me not to binge - I did and it shattered me.) said to watch centaurworld. I gave it a chance and have no regrets.

            Gritty, heavy, but loving and communicative. Beautiful show.

    False dichotomy.

    Centraur is when the neck of an quadruped animal gets its neck replaced by an human upper body… So the giraffe centaur would have neither a long human stomach, nor a long human neck.

    It is reductionism to say that something isn’t a giraffe, if it doesn’t have a long neck part. Shame on you! 😉

      Yeah. Everyone knows giraffe centaurs share the ears and ossicones of giraffes, but not their long necks and legs.
      It’s more like the ancestors of giraffes that had not elongated yet. Oh, and pretty long tongues too.

    A centaur has explicitly horse features until a certain point, then explicitly human features from that point onwards.

    That would mean the upper part not being allowed to divert back to horseness/giraffiness, as the left pic does.

      But right would also be wrong, because the torso is elongated instead of the neck.

      I suppose a giraffe centaur would be considerably shorter than either of these images suggest.

    Number 2 would fall over.

    Right now a giraffe needs 600lbs of neck muscle to hold up a 50 lb head on a 6 foot lever.

    There is no way the giraffe’s neck could hold a regular human torso. Forget a proportional one. It’s not possible.

    Picture for scale. A regular human torso would look comically small on top of a giraffe.

      You don’t even have to get into the weight.

      Mammals have at most 4 limbs. Centaurs would have 6 limbs, and the mammal brain never evolved to handle that many.

    Giraffes have the same number of neck vertebrae as you and me, the bones are just much longer.

    An actual giraffe centaur with human torso from the animal’s chest up would just be a long-legged spotty horse centaur.
