As I recall some people thought the horns might be feathers and that he was some kind of bird Faunus. That was before they revealed his last name. Of course, again the manga shows actual clear horns in its depiction of Adam so there is an open question about whether that is more representative of what his canon appearance should be or if they were taking liberties. It does actually make sense for him to be a bull Faunus since the Beast in Beauty and the Beast was depicted with Buffalo horns in the Disney film, which is where RT gets some of their ideas about the fairy tale references.
