Portmanteau of animal and weaboo (or more accurately wolfaboo).

A special breed of animal lover who, unlike the standard view of animal lovers as kind and caring individuals who extend their compassion to all sentient beings, is so sentimentally obsessed with animals to the point where they become utterly illogical, insane and vicious.

Animalaboos have little to no understanding of nature, science or anything logical about animals, and instead get their impression from an anthropomorphized Bambi-esque viewpoint. To them, animals are nothing but pure, harmless angels who can do nothing but act peaceful and caring 24/7, and if they show anything that isn't they blame humans. In any conflict involving humans and animals, to the animalaboos, the animals always win.

While many animal lovers expand their compassion to include all animals as well as humans, animalaboos reserve all their compassion to animals (notably cute or beautiful ones) and show hostility to humans.

Opposing animal cruelty, being vegetarian/vegan, advocating humane treatment of animals or caring about animals and humans equally does NOT make someone an animalaboo. Even most animal lovers, vegans and animal rights activists (yes, even big PETA activists) facepalm at the behaviour of animalaboos, who are seldom vegan. While obviously there are very few people who match the behaviour of an animalaboo exactly, a significant proportion of internet community tends to exhibit high degrees of animalaboo-ism.
