The guardians are only rumors, last time I checked. The rumors have very little credibility, too. Only two people (on the same site) noticed, and forgot to screencap/download the images? Likely story. Feel free to prove me wrong, though.

However, if the rumors are true, I think the guardians won't be anthropomorphic animals... maybe some strange, unheard-of creatures.
