trans animality (therian/otherkin/similar) is no less valid than transgender identity.

I totally agree. Both identities are equally valid. In the same way steak and pork are equally vegetarian.

Also, if they Identify as animals, can you legally get a license to hunt them?

Wow, this is a nice flashback to classic Tumblr in Action posts.

It's also a good reminder of how (and where) all the stupid-ass genderwoo got started, when basic, bland-as-unflavored-oatmeal people on Tumblr were looking for something to make them more special than everyone else.

My familiarity with otherkin from the old days is the only reason I entertain the idea this isn't a troll. It sounds so much like one, but I remember how wild that stuff sometimes was.

Notice to these people: It's all fun and games until the world takes you at face value.

"Oh, you claim to be an animal? That's fine. We can't have wolves or bears running wild, so we have the right to shoot you on sight with impunity or put you in a zoo to live forever....or, you count as a pet, meaning you have to live with your cruel hateful parents who'll make you DO CHORES and not spend all day on the Internet, and when they die, we can sell you to some creepy guy who'll make you their pet forever or we have the right to euthanize you if no one wants you..."

This is actually demonic.

Why is it that these psychos always chose "wolves?" What is it about wolves?

I'll tell you what. Wolf in sheeps clothing. There is demonic imagery here.

So throwback. I didn't think there were still otherkin. That's so 2011.
