>I can think of no other example.
Alice in Wonderland, Shrek, Beauty and the Beast, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Space Jam, Jungle Book, Snow White, so many more. Movies mixing people with anthropomorphic characters and having them interact is in no way rare.

I mean, it is good that it wouldn't fall at terminal velocity but I feel like something the size of a bus falling at even 1/4 of that speed could be pretty devastating to whatever it hits.

We have a road through our neighborhood with roundabouts at the entrance and exit to the neighborhood. For some reason semis like to take this road and many of them just drive right over the center sections of the roundabouts. One of them is full of rocks this size and the semis have a tendency to throw them out into the road and it is really obnoxious.

You would think the plethora of images you can find online of great horned owls killing cats and the fact that they are known for killing and eating cats would make you realize you have no idea what you are talking about.

I find it absolutely absurd that insurance companies are able to override doctors and dictate medical treatment. Doctors actually went to school for medicine and are much more qualified to know what is needed, insurance should be barred from this practice, it should really be considered practicing medicine without a license.

>The Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland or Donkey in Shrek, are a cat and donkey respectively. Never mind their fantastical setting, if you had Donkey walking on two legs and declaring he was an engineer I would raise an eyebrow.
Alice in wonderland has the rabbit that sits at a table and drinks tea and other things. Shrek has Puss in Boots, gingerbread man, honestly a ton. You say it is rare but it really isn't.
