TL;DR
- Therianthropy involves individuals who feel a deep spiritual or mental connection to a specific animal species.
- These individuals, called therians, identify their 'theriotype' as the animal that best represents their inner self.
- Practices include 'shifting' into animal behaviors and adopting accessories like masks and tails.
- The movement has gained popularity through online communities and social media platforms.
- A group of therians in Managua, Nicaragua, recently held a public gathering, marking the phenomenon's emergence in the country.
- Therians are distinct from furries, for whom it is a hobby, as therianthropy is considered an authentic form of self-perception.
