Therians and Furries are often misunderstood and subjected to unjust discrimination, bullying, and exclusion. These communities consist of individuals who express themselves through their connection with animals, whether it be a spiritual, psychological, or artistic connection. They harm no one and only seek to live authentically and share their creativity and self-expression.

Unfortunately, misinformation has led to widespread prejudice against these groups, often resulting in harassment in schools, workplaces, and online spaces. No one should be judged or mistreated based on their personal identity or harmless forms of self-expression.

This petition calls for greater awareness, acceptance, and protection for Therians and Furries under anti-discrimination policies. We urge schools, employers, and community leaders to educate themselves and others, fostering an environment of understanding and respect for all individuals, regardless of their identity.
