Balto II: Wolf Quest is interesting because it shows the titular character interacting with wolves and actually exploring his wolf side, which they didn't do in the first movie. Sadly, while this was a interesting concept, the execution leaves much to be desired. I will give them props for including the Brain, Ariel, Eliza Thornberry, the Joker, and Grasshopper in it, though.

╰┈➤ my alterhuman comfort movies
་ ּ𝟶:𝟶𝟶 ──◍───── 𝟷:𝟹𝟶 ➛ 🌱𖥔 ִ ་ ، ˖ ࣪ ་ ˖ ʿ🦴ꜝ
a list of comfort movies that i resemble or relate my alterhumanity to in some way.
: 1 WOLF CHILDREN
i absolutely have to put this as number one, mostly since it was one of the first movies i watched that i connected with on such a deep level when i was newly awakened.
without any spoilers, i felt that i related to both of the children so well that the movie was incredibly moving for me to watch. still one of my favourites to this day!
: 2 SPIRIT: STALLION OF THE CIMMERON
another big childhood movie for me - it’s so disappointing that they followed it up with a crappy horse-girl tv series though. also has an incredibly moving soundtrack that i still listen to.
: 3 BROTHER BEAR
i love the plot of this movie- it is so comforting. and the soundtrack, oh my. it’s one of my favourite disney movies for sure, and you definitely don’t need a to have a bear theriotype to relate either.
: 4 BALTO
rewatched this one fairly recently - some hard wolf feels for this movie. the feeling of not belonging as both a dog and a wolf is relatable, just in a different sense as a non-human.
although i feel like there’s much more or a alterhuman vibe from the second movie: wolf quest. i feel like most people will argue that nothing beats the original but i have a big soft spot for balto II.
: 5 BOLT
a disney gem, that i feel people forget about a lot. i’m including this one because it was a recent re-watch for me and it has some big alterhuman feels. the way bolt is learning to be a “dog” again without his super-powers, just reminds me of my alterhumanity - the window scene especially.
HONOURABLE MENTIONS
- movies that i haven’t yet seen, but give me alterhuman vibes.
WOLFWALKERS : theres a lot of talk about this one, though i’ve only seen clips!
POM POKO : a studio ghibli movie about tanuki’s that can shapeshift.
SONG OF THE SEA : made by the same studio as wolfwalkers (i’m pretty sure!) - a story about a girl that can turn into a seal.

Salutations, and welcome to my xenofiction sideblog. This is where I post my xenofic-related stuff including but not limited to:
My designs for characters from xenofiction books
Text posts (see: rambles) about my own xenofiction stories/webseries or those I read by others
General xenofiction stuff (book covers, screenshots, etc)
Xenofiction art by me or others
More? Maybe, in the future?
Feel free to suggest a character from a book series for me to design in my askbox, but please follow the following guidelines:
No Warrior Cats, Wings of Fire or Watership Down
Feral animals only, no furries/anthros or fantastical creatures like dragons/unicorns/etc.
I don’t have a lot to say about myself, but I do currently have a few completed and ongoing xenofiction projetcts, this being Tales From the Alps, a now-complete webseries duology about dogs/wolves I made when I was younger, and Dark Stones, a book series I’m currently writing. So you’ll probably see some posts about them sometimes.
My favorite xenofiction books are: The Wolf Chronicles, Fire Bringer and White Fang.
My favorite xenofiction movies are: Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole, Balto II: Wolf Quest, The Secret of NIMH, The Lord of the Rings trilogy (yes this counts).
My favorite animals are: thylacines and wolves
Hope you enjoy your stay!

Saba the Dingo/Ethiopian wolf by an unknown brand. I unfortunately can't find any information about this plush online. There's no tags so I don't know the brand, and I can't even properly identify the species. It looks like both a dingo and Ethiopian wolf, but googling for plushies of either species doesn't show this one in the results. So I'm kind of at a loss here, I don't even know what species to refer to her as.
I got her in a trade with an Instagram plush collector friend, but unfortunately she had no information on her, either. If anyone knows anything at all about this plush feel free to tell me, I'd love to figure out the enigma that is Saba. I did find a single listing for her over here, but it still really gives no information regarding the brand/species since it's labeled as "fox dog" or whatever that means.
I got her in 2022 and I named her after one of Balto's pups in Balto II: Wolf Quest. And while I don't know the species, I tend to refer to her as an Ethiopian wolf.

Kaala from The Wolf Chronicles trilogy and Aleu from Balto II: Wolf Quest. I drew them together because they have a few similarities (both being wolfdog protagonists of their own story, as well as being quite stubborn and strong-willed, both being a part of a prophecy or foretelling of some kind and both ending up leading their own packs).
Both of these characters are very dear to me for various reasons, especially Kaala as she is actually my favorite protagonist from any media I have ever consumed. Also, unlike Aleu, who got a pretty happy ending (a bittersweet one, but ultimately she is happy as she finds her place as the new pack leader), Kaala's ending is um, without going into spoilers, not a happy one. I also tend to draw her looking really tired because while she's less than a year old throughout most of the trilogy she goes through SO much shit in that short amount of time she might as well have lived three lifetimes in that single year. Poor girl, give her some rest.
[ID: A digital bust drawing of two wolfdog characters. On the left is a gray agouti she-wolf with a scarred shoulder, brown eyes and a tired expression. She is looking over at the one on the right, a light tan-and-cream wolfdog with blue eyes, who is smiling with her mouth half open. The background is blue. End ID.]
