If people were Chihuahuas, coyotes would be 25-feet-tall... now that's something to ponder.

Raccoons have hands. Close enough!

Coyotes average at 23 inches tall, and I think most people have similar size dogs or smaller. So really it be 6'-8' feral humans. I think the punk fashion would be much more popular.

i imagine that's much how it felt back when there were multiple human species running around, and clearly including the fact that a lot of people will find them rougishly handsome judging by our genetic record..

and the fun part? we were probably the strange feral version, since other human species exited africa before we did. Neanderthals lived in europe waaay before homo sapiens did and were thus a fair bit better evolved for the climate.

They have 4ft tall humanoids coming out to eat their trash?

I assume this is a reference to the various ethnic groups in the Congo Basin who are notably shorter on average than most humans, such as the Batwa and Bambuti. The different groups are often collectively referred to as "Pygmy peoples", but I don't feel super great about the way that sounds

If the poster is not a gigantic racist, he or she may also have referred to the ape species living various places in Africa coming into town and eating trash.

Plenty of people live in areas where monkeys raid their garbage.
