+Desertrat56 Posted August 6, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Please don't tell my grandson about this. He already makes tails and wears them to pretend he is a fox, dog or cat. He could pretend he is a dinosaur with that one. 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendy Demon Posted August 6, 2019 #4 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Kind of cool really but what if the cause of ones balance issues is largely due to some abnormality of the inner ear? I am not sure an artificial tail would help those people. Still like the idea though. :) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would help some autistic people whose issue is their motor skills. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Furry community who love a bit of Cosplay will absolutely applaud this idea. Although, I'm not sure it'll fit into their budgets for their costumes, but the aiding in balance aspect of the tail will be so handy for some. Kinda like an extra limb in a way. Made me think of Kangaroos actually. Gotta hand it to the Asians, they really do think outside the box with their inventions. 1 hour ago, Hammerclaw said: Pretty lame.
