Macro
Macro, also known as Macrofurry or Furry giant, is, as a furspeak term, used to describe any furry character who is larger than normal (commonly, anything starting above 50 ft/15 m.)
This can mean anything from a character larger than a normal human (8-9 ft = 2.44 to 2.74 m tall), to titans that dwarf cities. As a paraphilia, the sexual attraction to macro characters is known as macrophilia.
The macro character can come from two forms, some furs like growth methods, such as pills or a ray of some description, Other macros prefer to be a macro-creature, born as a giant, (a good example would be the western concept of a dragon)
Macros can be both feral and anthro; feral macro characters are much more common then feral "normal" size furs, and there are some macro taurs, but are extremely rare in the community.
[edit] Macrophile
One of the best-known sites dedicated to macro furs is Macrophile.com, which acts a combination of FurNation with some elements of Fur Affinity.
Many noted furry artists and story writers keep galleries or pages on it, including Kenneth Sample, Rogue, Gideon, Doug Winger, SusanDeer and many more.
