Dragon Ball Z Kakarot actually has an explanation.
There used to be a fad where you took Furry Transformation drugs, it was all the rage when Goku was a kid
Somehow the Red Ribbon Army was behind the manufacturing of these drugs.
But the fad died down around Z, and most people went back to being human. Most people, you can still see animal people in the background shots of some of the Z Movies, I wanna say Android 13 and Lord Slug have them
I’m gonna be honest, I think that’s super lame. Not because it’s drugs, but because it’s a cheap way to explain not having animal people rather than just admit you don’t want to draw them anymore. It makes the world more boring.
Because then at least the universe still exists in your imagination without being a shitty retcon cop out.
Edit: I also want to clarify, I’m not against change or drugs or bodymods, by any means, and I do think the drug idea is actually really cool. BUT - using it as a means to bs your way AS AN AUTHOR out of having any animal people anymore feels really messed up. And also Lazy. It would be one thing if it were a fan theory, which I still feel like it might be, but that it’s canon is like … It just feels so fricking cheap and like “there never were any animal people because it was all just bodymods” like bro fuck you yeah there were, we all saw the animal people and the world was more colorful and wonderous for it.
If they want to save it, maybe have both: have the majority of people be animal people, they’ve just gone into hiding, but then there is also a technology in the world that’s capable of turning people into animal people and animal people into human people. Like the reason we haven’t been seeing animal people is because they’ve been transformed/hiding/playing as humans.
Don’t take away animal-people authenticity! They exist!

“How do you explain creative diversity?”
“Drugs.”

How is “i didn’t feel like drawing them anymore” less boring?
