* ''Videogame/Pirate101'' features the full spectrum of this principle in it's anthropomorphic characters. There are frog smugglers and pelican fishermen, playing it straight, but there are also pirates who are [[ExaggeratedTrope completely aquatic]], such as sharks and crabs. But it's not an exclusive rule, and you'll find sailors of all races, from rodents and dogs to monkeys, and even unicorns.
