In the furry fandom furries make fursuits, art, and more cool stuff, they work very hard to make these things, but sometimes in the furry fandom art that looks very amazing is used not only by the person who made it but art thefts.
Art thefts are all over the furry fandom on lots of websites such as Instagram and deviantart, art thefts in the furry fandom take others art and usually post a picture of the art and claim it theirs, sometimes art thefts are underage furries around the ages 9-12 who don't understand art theft, and just want some attention, but sometimes furries who are adults are art the fits doing things such as tracing art or recoloring art and claiming it theirs.
This rarely happens and I think it has happened about 2 or 3 times, but sometimes art thefts in the furry fandom steal a fursuit. This also barely happens, but but sometimes a furry makes a fursuit of a fursona that is not theirs.
These are all examples of art theft in the furry fandom, if you see art theft it is best to inform the original artist right away. If your art is being stolen tell them to stop if they didn't stop ask for help from other furries who have had their art stolen in the past, they might be able to help, whatever you do don't start drama attention is what art thefits are looking for and if you give them what they want they will continue.
