[Muppets] Biologically and socially speaking, what ARE Muppets?

What actually are Muppets? Do Elmo and Big Bird etc. from 123 Sesame Street belong to the Muppet species? How do Muppets mesh with humans in society? Can they take on the same rolls and jobs in a community as a regular human can?

All Muppets are derived from the same primordial origins.   They simply evolved differently over the eons than us, and of course into different 'species' as it were... eg: Hairy muppets most commonly 'monsters' (think Oscar, Grover, Elmo, etc...)... the feathery muppets (eg. Big Bird)... felt textured muppets (Kermit, Bert, Ernie, etc)... to name a few.

Most Muppets are MORE than capable of socializing and mingling with humans, including taking on the same roles and jobs as humans in our society (physical size and limb strength not withstanding), Unfortunately ignorance and prejudice prevent many Muppets from being treated fairly in most areas of the US.  This is why Muppets seemingly prefer to reside in their own communities, not the least of which is the aforementioned *Sesame Street,* where they are accepted by others like them and by some more inspired humans.

They've even fashioned a coded song of sorts that, when sung, can direct those that seek refuge from oppression to said street.
