The animal forms like Cow and Spider are intended as curses, but they each have their own play styles, so some players enjoy playing as animals full time.
Animal Woes
Observant players have noticed that it's hard to craft gear for animal-cursed players. There's only one gem that covers all animal curses, so you often craft Deer gear when you really want Spider gear, and so on.
In the next update (edit me), there will be a way to inscribe runes into those gems, so that you can attune the gem to one specific animal curse. You'll want to get your Sigil Scripting skill to level 25 to be able to use those techniques.
