This list features notable animal characters that possess the ability to walk, talk, act, and sometimes exhibit human-like behavior. Additionally, these characters possess traits that allow them to be referred to as superheroes. They are often depicted as transforming from non-human animals into human form or originating from other planets and arriving on Earth. While some of these characters reside on Earth, the population of the planet also includes other anthropomorphic animals.
Many of these characters first gained prominence in cartoons and comics, such as Mighty Mouse and Underdog. Presently, talking animals can be found in prominent roles in video games as well. Among the anthropomorphic superheroes, other notable examples include:
