Found this article/gallery so informative!
Did anyone else know that Beast has a rainbow bum? I sure didn't!
"Supervising animator Glen Keane, who was charged with designing and drawing the Beast, spent a lot of time at the zoo figuring out how to best bring the character to life. Ultimately, the Beast became a hodgepodge of physical characteristics from many animals, including the mane of a lion, the horns and head of a buffalo, the eyebrows of a gorilla, the tusks of a wild boar, the upper body of a bear, and the legs and tail of a wolf. Oh, my! There's also one physical attribute you don't see: the posterior of a mandrill. According to Keane, "Beast actually has a rainbow bum, but nobody knows that but Belle."
