Yes.

@Prince of Seraphs

Sure sure, I know. But that doesn't mean such a thing doesn't exist, just because we have one single example.

Bunny faunus with human ears:


Wolf faunus with human ears:


Just because the faunus might have animal ears doesn't mean they don't have human ears. It's actually a very common precedent in genetics, organisms evolve with a new organ or something to do a better job than the old one but the old one takes another three thousand years to be edited out of the gene pools. Maybe faunus in three thousand years will have cat ears but no human but they're not like that now.

Plus you'd just look really creepy without ears.

I'm fairly certain, I heard something concerning the still remaining human ears from one of the crew saying that they were unable to remove them from the skeletons or something, since all their concept art shows Blake and Velvet without human ears. Later they just changed it, so that they do have human ears.

However, biologically it doesn't make sense for a mammal to have two sets of ears and I'm sure Faunus are still mammals.
Or at least, not both of the pairs actually work at the same time.

[Lady Seraphina]

No logistically and functionally it doesn't make sense for them to have two sets of ears. From a biological stand point assuming faunus evolved from humans it makes perfect sense. There are dozens of different traits in your body that don't actually have a purpose, they're left over pieces of an earlier evolution of humanity and in five or six generations they will eventually get edited out.

The same is true of other mammals, many of them have traits both internal and external that serve no purpose and in some cases are actually detrimental. Evolution is a very slow process that takes a great deal of time. It's not going to be suddenly an entire generation of faunus don't have regular human ears. It's going to be that the human ears slowly disappear over a couple hundred or even thousand years.

[Abillioncats]

It's kind of like how some people don't ever get wisdom teeth, and the rest of us usually get them removed.

[KabenSaal]

Yang is Ryuuko. That is really fucking Neato.

[Eklispe]

@PyroDash888 maybe you just have small human ears so you can't see dem unless you look reaaal close.

@Eklispe

And really long hair.

[Pannette]

I'm just trying to make senpai notice me! S-shut up!

@Lucius Cypher

If everything works out, I'd be happy to work with you and Gren. But you should know that Snow has first dibs since he invited me here, ahaha.

[Forsythe]

Guess what? I actually finished artwork once in an eon =D

@KabenSaal

Forever gonna puzzle over how the hell they got such a quality cast for the Japanese dub.

Of the things that come to mind that would warrant Ami goddamn Koshimizu, let alone everyone else on the cast, RWBY ain't one of them.

@Pannette

Well then... I guess we're no longer brothers, snows.

From here on out we're rivals.

@PyroDash888

If it's that much of a problem, we could just chop off your human ears. Advance evolution that way. I think I have an image of a catgirl with her human ears chopped off somewhere....

[HereComesTheSnow]

@Lucius Cypher

Why would declare yourself the rival-kun

do you WANT to job as soon as the first villains show up dude

[Lucius Cypher]

@HereComesTheSnow

Dammit! And Gren certainly fits the criteria! Obviously physically superior to the shonen protagonist but gets stomped for the purpose of showing the threat level of the bad guys! Fine, you win this time, but I will have Senpai notice me! And I will be all cool and chill about it. Show Gren's green side where he's cool and chill and doesn't choke people out for ideological differences.

[HereComesTheSnow]

@Lucius Cypher

Atta boy

The rival-kun is the second-worst person to be anyway, just short of "the protagonist's silly and perverted best friend"

My Hider

wait did i just describe Luke

[harinezumikouken]

Found this.

[HereComesTheSnow]

@Forsythe

Scared/10

[Lucius Cypher]

@HereComesTheSnow

Wait... What if Gren Is actually the shonen protagonist, and I just don't know it?

[Abillioncats]

And our forecast for today is a sudden breeze in the dining hall...wait that doesn't sound right.

@PyroDash888

And the original script for Frozen had Elsa as the villain, Anna as a girly girl princess and Hans as the hero of the day, doesn't make it in way a part of the story. It doesn't really mean a damn what they were intending to do unless they actually did it.
