If you believe in nothing, honey, it believes in you.

Why are there so few female animal protagonists in media, with Mrs. Brisby the field mouse from The Secret of NIMH (animated movie), The titular protagonist of Sagwa The Chinese Siamese Cat (animated TV show), The titular protagonist wombat of Digger (web comic), and the titular protagonist kitten of Chi's Sweet Home and Chi's New Address (anime and manga), and Ginger the hen from Chicken Run (clay animated movie) being among the very few female animal protagonists?
Well, male protagonists still outnumber female protagonists in general, and I guess that carries over to the animal kingdom as well.

Why are anthropomorphic female animal characters in cartoons, comics, and video games usually drawn with more humanoid body proportions than male ones? For example, Cleo the female cat from Heathcliff and The Catillac Cats is more anthropomorphic than Riff Raff the male cat and many of the female cats in Tom and Jerry, including Toodles Galore, are more anthropomorphic than the male cats, Tom and Butch.
I think it has to do with how cartoonists tend to make females of pretty much every species busty, sometimes even with types of animals that don’t even HAVE breasts.
