Pure-blood Faunus are likely some type of bestial humanoid/anthro, with more animalistic facial structures and so on. Most humans probably view mating with Faunus as little better than bestiality, so it would make sense that hybrid Faunus suffer a lot of abuse. Given that, I don't doubt that pure-bloods, if there are any left, mostly stick to Menagerie. Their animalistic appearance probably reminds humans of Grimm to an extent, which could be further fuel for discrimination. When two Faunus of different animal totems breed, they are most likely going to be one or the other, though some combinations of similar breeds, like lions and tigers, could concieveably end up with a mix of both. You raise some very, very good points, but what about the Human-Faunus War that was repeatedly mentioned? Did the 'Pure-Bloods' and the hybrids fight? Or is there really only one type of Faunus? Aside from that, you deserve praise because your analysis was pretty thought-provoking.
