These people have gone to great lengths to transform themselves into animals. It might seem unusual, but for these individuals, this is their way of expressing themselves and living in a way that feels true to their inner identity.

Through extreme surgeries, tattoos, and body modifications, they’ve altered their appearances to reflect the animals they admire most.

Unfortunately, these transformations often come with challenges, such as pain, judgment from others, and even health risks.

Here’s a take a look at five people who’ve completely changed their appearances to resemble animals:

1. Dennis Avner – The Tiger Man

Dennis Avner, also known as “Stalking Cat,” was inspired by his Native American heritage to transform into a tiger. Over the years, he underwent dozens of surgeries, including whisker implants, fanged teeth, and extensive facial tattoos.

Sadly, his extreme modifications led to mixed reactions from the public, but he remained committed to his identity.

2. Tiamat Legion Medusa – The dragon lady

Tiamat Legion Medusa, once known as Richard Hernandez, took their transformation to a whole new level by turning into a dragon.
