Gullivers Travels

Please does anyone know what form the Yahoo's take in Gullivers Travels?

Pretty easy to find references like this on the net Pamnez:

Yahoos are the human-like creatures that Gulliver first encounters in the Country of the Houyhnhnms. Not recognizing their link with humanity, Gulliver describes the Yahoos as animals: �� deformed �. Their heads and breasts were covered with thick hair � but the rest of their bodies were bare �. They had no tails and often stood on their hind feet �.� He concludes with, �I never beheld in all my travels so disagreeable an animal.�

graemer.  I did find lots of references to yahoos on the net.  I think the thing that confused me (I am easily confused) was that the question asks "what FORM did the yahoos take". I know they were ugly brutish humans so I suppose the answer must be "human". Or am I missing something?
