Half-Gorons have several traits taken from both sides of their heritage. Source

Half-Goron

Physiology

Half-Gorons are the result of interbreeding between Hylians or Sheikah and Gorons. While this cross is uncommon it is not impossible. When the mother is Hylian it more often than not results in the death of the Mother. These crossbreeds between Gorons and Hylians have long pointed Hylian ears but larger lips and stubbier Noses, they have slightly harder skin than Hylians (Not as hard as Gorons however) and tend to be physically stronger and shorter than Hylians.

Society

Half-Gorons are generally shunned from Goron society, leaving them to live with Hylians which they are able to do with relative ease, Half-Gorons do not stick out as much from Hylians and so they are able to blend in easier, however many Half-Gorons, proud of their heritage wear their tribal insignia on their body in some form or another.
