'''Yumars''' are a [[species]] of [[hybrid]], [[cheetah]]-like, sentient [[anthropomorphic|anthropomorph]]s, created by the art team of [[furry writer]] [[Ryan Dewalt]] and [[furry artist]] [[Candy Dewalt|Candy L. Dewalt]].

[[Artisan P. Sunspot]] (Arty), a major character from the online comic ''[[Vinci & Arty]]'' and host of the weekly Internet Radio program [[Ask Arty]] is a yumar.

==Yumar biology==
Yumars are a genetic [[Wikipedia:Heterosis|heterosis]] between three distinct species:
*Cheetahs (''Acinonyx jubatus''). A member of the [[Felidae]] family within the [[Mammal]]ia class.
*[[Otter]]s (''Lutra canadensis''). A member of the [[Mustelidae]] family, also within the Mammalia class.
*[[Koi]] (''鯉'', ''Cyprinus carpio''). A member of the [[Wikipedia:Cyprinidae|Cyprinidae]] family within the [[Wikipedia:Actinopterygii|Actinopterygii]] class (ray-finned [[fish]].)

The genetic cross result is an aquatic-based, [[biped]] feline being, characterized by (generally) yellowish fur with black spots, webbed paws and feet, and a furred feline-line tail that ends on a koi patterned, fur-less fin.

==Genetic problems==
Due to [[Wikipedia:Mutagenesis|Mutagenesis]], yumars are prone to biological deformities, which over time, have evolved on some diverse characteristics that can be as minor as the [[badger]] fur patterned yumar, to a completely different subspecies, like the '''harmony yumar'''. Harmonies are named so for their forked tails that split into two about a fourth out from the body.

==Fubars==
'''Fubars''' are a rare hybrid offshoot that are the result of crossbreeding between yumars and [[foxes]] (''Vulpes vulpes'').
