As part of my continuing research on this subject, the answer I have found is this:
A creature which is half human & half animal is defined by the general term Therianthrope (in specific terms a werewolf is a Lycanthrope)
There is a spiritual movement of people who believe they have the soul of a beast or predominant animal traits or are guided by powerful animal spirit guides and they are generally referred to as Therians. The term "Otherkin" is also used.
The term Chimera, which I mentioned earlier actually refers to a hybrid of animals rather than animal and human. I hope this information helps clarify the answer to the question.
