So, more sites for animal research!

Im so glad ppl actually found this helpful, so I found more sites similar to animalia ☆

[yes I accidentally deleted this... I'm writing a second time]

Most similar to animalia are animalcorner.org and animalspot.net.

More focused ones are allaboutbirds.org for avian therians, oceaninfo.com and oceana.org (the marine life encyclopedia can be found under the research section) for ocean creatures.

Earth.com is still general, only it has a plant encyclopedia too!! woohoo!

For paleotherians helpfull can be newdinosaurs.com!!

And for more magical creatures I found mythicalencyclopedia.com, which even has sections by type and culture of the creature. And even a section of artificial ones. And an app?? it seems??

I've made a few posts talking about things in the nonhuman and alterhuman communities recently, mostly just brief looks into them, so I thought I would share this one.

The info may not be all that much, and could easily be expanded upon, but I did my best for a simple bit of info for certain things.

All pictures have ALT text included, but I shall post the text also here, under a cut, cause it's a bit long, lol

Nonhuman as an identity: To identify as not human either fully or partially. (hate/trolls will be reported and deleted)

Reminder: These are all personal identities and why someone identifies as nonhuman and what term someone decides to use for themself is exclusively their business. In the end it is what makes the most sense to the individual and not up to others. Now, onto some of the communities that are included under the nonhuman identity:

Otherkin: from the term "otherkind" - an identity which typically encompasses being wholly or partially a nonhuman entity. Usually understood to cover those who identify as mythical creatures and other fantastical things. Also covers those that fall outside of beings and creatures.

Examples of non-being or creature based identities: Conceptkin: an identity where one identifies as a concept such as the concept of night or fire. Objectkin: and identity where one identifies as an object. Songkin: an identity where one identifies as a song.

Examples of being and creature based identities: Therianthropy: usually shortened to therian - where one identifies AS a nonhuman animal. Some will say that this term refers to only earthen animals, living or extinct, but it has never only encompassed earthly animals. The community's language came from those who identify as werecreatures. Theriomythic: an alternate identity term for one who identifies in some intrinsic was as a mythical creature. Paleotherian: an identity term for one who identifies as a now extinct earthly animal, like a dinosaur or mammoth.

Cladotherian or Cladokin: an identity term for one who does not identify as a distinct species, but a broader identity encompassing an entire genus or larger grouping. Cladomythic: an identity term for one who identifies as a group (clade) of animalistic mythical creatures.

Fictionkin: an identity term that covers all things fictional. For those who identify as something fictional like characters, animals, species, objects, etc. These can be from books, shows, video games, etc, but not always! Original fictional characters and such are also possible.

There are many other identities that fall under the nonhuman umbrella which is why it's important to do your own research to figure out if a certain term works for you. All these identities share the trait of being involuntary. You cannot choose to be therian, otherkin, or the other mentioned identities.

While the already mentioned identities are involuntary, there are some identities that fall under being voluntary. Otherlink: an identity where one voluntarily identifies as nonhuman. Copinglink: an identity where one voluntarily identifies as nonhuman to copes with things such as trauma, stress, etc.

A lot of people may also say that it is impossible to become a therian, otherkin, etc. While the identity is involuntary, things like trauma and neurodivergence can cause an individual to take on a nonhuman identity when they had not had one previously.

Most will usually see people explain that these identities are spiritual or psychological, but these are only some of the ways that individuals may experience them. Some other experiences of nonhumanity: Symbolic Metaphorical Ancestral Physical (Yes this is an actual reason for some and they are just as much a part of the community as anyone else. Physical and Ancestral nonhumans are part of the community's history and some of its founders.)

For those looking for more information, and community places, here are some places to check out! Werelist Nonhuman National Park Alterhuman Archive The Chimera's Library. The above are forums and archives of information on the community. Most archived information is thanks to who-is-page, liongoatsnake and frameacloud on tumblr.

While this is a brief look into the nonhuman identity that I could share, I do hope it has been helpful in some way. Remember to be true to yourself, and don't let anyone tell you how to feel. Ignore, report, delete and block the haters!

Yeen out~

I hate it when I'm in an argument about dinosaurs then it gets dangerously close to the Tyrannosaurs or literally the T-rex and I'm sitting there like: Bro, I'm Literally a Tyrannosaurus. Trust me bro. I was there.

Like- Do you know who you're talking to? Look at me, I am OBVIOUSLY a Tyrannosaurus rex rn. Are you stupid?

People think being a mosasaur therian would give me that apex predator brand confidence but the problem with being a big, confident predator is that there is often a bigger, more confident predator somewhere around and when you're in the ocean "around" is very comprehensive

Carolina parakeet Was looking at pictures of extinct birds yesterday and then started to picture myself as one briefly and I still feel it a bit today. They were the parrot with the northernmost range and therefore were sometimes snow parrots! Native to the southeastern United States, they even lived in my state of Kansas. I feel a connection to them and I love them a lot and it was fun drawing this! The tree is supposed to be a beech tree, since this is a tree they enjoyed eating the seeds from. They were also cavity nesters, this one found an old abandoned woodpecker cavity to keep warm in during an unexpected snowfall!

There’s been some really interesting discussion on violence and hunting instincts going around, so fuck it, rambling time.

⚠️ TW: Violence, Prey Drive/Hunting Instincts, Intrusive Thoughts & ‘Thought Crimes’.

As a dinosaur, the hunt is not violence. As a dinosaur, I’m simply not capable of recognising prey items as anything more complex than food. Bringing down prey feels no different from cooking dinner, really.

But as a human, I’m painfully aware that things my prey drive wants me to go for are beings with their own experiences of the world. Especially when those things are humans.

I don’t blame the instincts, for the record. They’re holdovers from before modern society was even a twinkle in anyone’s eye, exacerbated by my nonhumanity. My instincts don’t focus on humans specifically, it’s just that my options are very limited in the places I’ve lived. Humans and livestock are the only animals with enough meat to be worth the energy to hunt.

That’s not to say I always enjoy having them, though. Especially when I was younger they were a source of great distress. I was stuck in an awful loop of [urge to hunt] -> [being frightened by that] -> [intrusive thoughts telling me only bad people have bad thoughts, so I 5 be a bad person] rinse, repeat.

I spent many years feeling like I was a hair’s breadth away from snapping and really hurting someone. Not true, of course, but try confronting irrational thoughts with facts and logic some time. It’s rarely very effective

I’ve come a long way since then. With appropriate treatment, my laundry list of mental health issues are significantly more manageable. Not to say I don’t have bad days, but on balance, I’m okay with who - and what - I am.

Tumblr won't let me change my name for some reason. I'm hoping it does sooner or later, but if it doesn't I just wanna say my name is Delta or Echo
