Anthro is short for Anthropomorphic. Since it's a long word and a hard hard to type too, we were lazy and just slapped it on any image that has a human-like creature

Wiki is your friend, my friend.

On topic though, it should be noted that we tag everything that is anthro as anthro, not just anthro on feral action

In sciences, "anthropo-" is more commonly used.

Anthro is the shortened/slang form of "anthropo", actually. Anthrōpos is Ancient Greek for "man or human". morphic is the suffix that indicates that the form is shaped similarily- anthropomorphic has the simple meaning of "human shaped". You are correct in that anything utilizing the prefix "anthro" or "anthropo" is human-based, though. :)
