- The Animal Dance craze was directly related with the popularity of ragtime music (improvisational melodies with syncopated beats, from African-American traditions). There were an endless varieties of animal dance fads, such as: Horse Trot, Kangaroo Hop, Duck Waddle, Squirrel, Chicken Scratch, Turkey Trot, and Grizzly Bear. The general idea of these dances was that dancing couples were supposed to imitate with their own movements the movements of various animals after which the dances were named. Both music and dance reflected the vibrancy of modern, urban influences. The music is typified by Scott Joplin’s rags and made popular to the middle class by "Alexander's Ragtime Band,” published in 1911. The dances incorporated in the Animal Craze are parts of the Jazz Age of the 1920s. (en)
- Le terme de danse animalière fait référence à un groupe de danses sociales ayant eu leur pic de popularité en occident au début du XXe siècle et dont les mouvements devaient rappeler les mouvements de divers animaux. Ces danses ont connu un fort engouement de la part de la jeune génération et ont été beaucoup critiquées par les sections conservatrices et les gardiens des bonnes mœurs. Le pas de l'ours et le bunny hug font par exemple partie des danses animalières. (fr)
