I figured she was just a rebel. Having an entire species of people with animal ears and tails isn't something you just assume is going to happen, so I don't think everyone knew she would be part animal. Everyone picked it up from the lyrics. Ya know, the whole "worthless animal." "ruthless human rule"

Literally no one, apart from you it seems, was at all shocked by her ears showing up.

Between the song lyrics and her bow twitching, everyone called it. I knew she was a Faunus once Faunus were introduced to the show. If you are going to introduce a minority into a show, at least one of the main characters will turn out to be that minority. As far as the song goes, they mention being treated like animals, but this doesn't mean they were part animal. The song itself makes it sound like they are treated as slaves and in most accounts of slavery, slaves were called animals and weren't considered human. Knowing this, this would then explain the "ruthless human rule" line as them being slaves to their human owners or they may not want to be associated with humans based on their own experiences. >I wasn't smart enough to figure it out

That's all you had to say really
