This may sound like a strange question, but for a long time I have been considering attending one of those conventions where everyone's wearing animal costumes, or "suits" as they seem to be called (not like masks or whatever, but fully detailed to look like anthopomo-whatever versions of whatever animal you've chosen) like this if you can't picture it.

I was just wondering if anyone here knows anything about how one would go about attending these? It looks pretty cool. Also, do they supply the "suits" or have you got to buy them? Also is there a pacific way you decide what "your" animal is going to be?

Any help is appreciated.
