"walking beast" is an unnatural expression

Editor: ... and "quadruped" seems to scientific a term for 走兽
Retained "beast" because it
- typically refers to four-footed animals
- works well for the sense noted by Baidu @ 走兽 ~ 1 ... 2 詈词。犹言衣冠禽兽。
Diff:
- 走獸 走兽 [zou3 shou4] /quadruped/animal/walking beast/
# + 走獸 走兽 [zou3 shou4] /quadruped/animal/beast/
+ 走獸 走兽 [zou3 shou4] /(four-footed) animal/beast/
