#Octransfur2026 Day 20 - Wing It looks like this traveler has become a giant aeromorph. How lucky! Sadly, that property damage isn't going to pay for itself, so now they'll have to pay it back by taking a job at this very airport... #Transformation #TFeveryday #Octransfur

sapience/retention of one's human mind varies a lot among the zoo animals. for the most part, it's very disorienting (being in a new body and all) but victims are fully of their old mind upon being transformed. however, they do tend to start to lose that over time.

if they "accept" their predicament so to speak they'll typically eventually just become fully that animal, mind and all. those who actively hold on to their identity and sense of self will manage to keep it for far longer, or potentially indefinitely

i feel like there's not much to be doen for those split into a group of animals though. like whatever remnants of that persons individuality remain after that happens tend to be lost pretty quickly. in most cases, at least. i feel like "sentient school of fish" could be an interesting rare exception

not EVERY SINGLE animal in the park used to be a human. i feel like that would get suspicious quick. the organization does obtain animals from other facilities and- largely- from small sanctuaries and private owners. this is the cover story for the majority of the former humans too.

you know, like, where'd this toucan come from? oh, this was a rescue from a private owner who could no longer take care of it. this tiger is a rescue from a private roadside zoo that was shut down. this tortoise was an anonymous donation from someone after it grew too large. that sort of thing.

ok “splitting” isny typically my thing but im trying to expand my horizons AND shoals of fish in planet zoo 2 are basically treated as a single animal. so i feel like rather than having to nab and tf a dozen people you could probably make a school of gourami out of just one guy

im very enchanted by the idea of some rich freak being interested in the intersection of "personal exotic pet zoo" and "the most dangerous game" in which they want a menagerie of humans-turned-animals...

forget my other post about this planet zoo 2 is here and i know exactly what i want to do for my franchise mode campaign. oh im so excited. i still have 7 hours of work left but oh im soooo excited about this

4 hours til i get off. pivoting away from rich asshole to “mad scientists can be conservationists too” with a hearty dash of miss frizzle. she’s enthusiastic about environmentalism, education, and not keeping detailed records about visitors for plausible deniability.

ive whipped up a handful of off the cuff character designs to use for tf stuff if i’m not feeling like a particular blorbo and id rather avoid “anonymous” type figures..here’s one #tf #transfur #transformation #tfeveryday

OK i think i'll cut it off here .. gator was NOT the frontrunner i expected!!! reptile fans really showed up fantastic work everyone. i will keep these in my pocket for upcoming images :]

ok gamers. i just went to the zoo for my birthday and it was fantastic. and i'd like to do a fun little TF challenge with the animals i saw! so i'll do a poll here where you can choose animals that you wanna see me draw TF of out of the ones i saw today. #tf #transfur #tfeveryday #transformation
