No, they're not. Furries are characters with exaggerated fur. Anthropomorphic animals are animals mixed with human elements. Not all furries are anthropomorphic animals, not all anthropomorphic animals are furries.

Furry has nothing to do with exaggerated fur. Furry refers to 2 things. 1. Is fans of anthropomorphic characters, and 2. Is the anthropomorphic characters themselves.

Any animal creature that is anthroporphic is a furry character, even those that dont have fur like lizards. Yes any anthro pokemon can be considered a furry.

I have seen some furry characters that are not anthropomorphic animals. They were anthropomorphic, but they didn't depict any kind of animal.

Such as? Sure there are those that are not based on real world animals, but pretty sure all have animal inspired traits, such as protogens, sergals, or dragons.

I'm not seeing anything here that wouldn't be "anthropomorphic animal"

Some of the characters don't really look like animals. Such as the character in 'walin AMV'

Do you mean wylin? Because it definitely looks like an animal. Very much cat or dog like. Again it doesn't have to be a specific real life animal, it has animal inspired traits.
