Fearow doesn't seem to be directly based on any particular bird species, instead taking inspiration from many soaring, predatory birds. It has traits similar to raptors such as {{wp|hawks}} and {{wp|vultures}}, as well as similarities with {{wp|storks}}. Its physical appearance may be vaguely based on a {{wp|cormorant}} or an {{wp|anhinga}}, despite the fact that they are water birds. It also shares characteristics with {{wp|chickens}} and {{wp|snipe}}, most notably its comb and long beak, respectively. | Fearow doesn't seem to be directly based on any particular bird species, instead taking inspiration from many soaring, predatory birds.

Its coloration and size also resembles the {{wp|Goliath Heron}}, whose feathers when ruffled look superficially like a cockscomb. | ||
