⬩ Introduction ⬩

▸ Hello! I'm Delta. Fully grown adult bull shark. Intersex. It/its and that/thats pronouns.

▸ Physically nonhuman. Shark on every level. Not a human. Holotherian and transspecies.

▸ Don't care much about what labels you use for me though. Just don't call me human.

▸ Might talk about my experiences with physical shifting. Block if that offends.

▸ This is my main and only blog. Will probably post and talk about more than just my nonhumanity.

▸ Would love to meet more nonhumans! Sharks and other aquatic creatures especially. Don't be afraid to send me a message!

▸ Big fan of any and all marine creatures! I like swimming, drawing and have an interest in reptiles.

▸ No dni. Will block for any reason. I will not tag something just because you ask. My asks are open and I welcome questions!

Nurse shark (Ginglymostoma cirratum).

First shark request done! I did not do a background as I felt like just showing off the shark! I think I will do this for all of them.

I've never drawn a nurse shark before, so this was great practice! They are lovely sharks and I realized I quite enjoy drawing their pectoral fins. Sad I didn't show off more of the caudal fin as it is very pretty, but there will be more chances! Quite happy with how this turned out though and I'm excited to draw the rest!

Just popping in to say that I haven't forgotten about the shark drawing requests! I've just been busy! I promise they will get done at some point even if it's a year from now! (Though that is unlikely and I hope to at least get started this week heh)

I want to draw more sharks but I have no ideas for what species, environment, or anything really. If anyone has a shark they like or that they want to see art of let me know! I'm totally open to other creatures but I will prioritise sharks! :3

In the meantime I'll try to figure out a reference of myself! 🦈

Oh I've already gotten multiple shark drawing requests! I promise I'll get to all of them eventually!

Hey Delta!

How are you? How you are doing okay.

I was wondering if you have any preferences in terms of diet and if you being a Bull shark affects what food you prefer.

I, myself, am questioning if I am shark otherhearted and lately have been craving fresh fish more than anything! Idk if it's related but perhaps?

Just curious what your experience is like!

Have a good one!

Hello, hello! I'm doing ok, hope you're doing well too! Been a bit busy lately, so sorry for a late response!

I definitely think being a shark impacts my dietary preferences! Bull sharks are very opportunistic hunters and will eat a wide variety of things, so my own preferences are quite diverse as well. Unfortunately not as useful in figuring out if you are a bull shark/feel connected to sharks as you'd think as diet can vary widely between species.

Raw fish does happen to be a favourite though, especially tuna as not only do I find it tasty, but they are also common prey of theriform bull sharks. I also love shellfish! One thing that I am unsure if it has to do with being a shark is that I have a tendency to "scavenge". I will ask for people's leftovers often and find it enjoyable to make sure there is no food wasted. But this could just be a me thing.

Thanks for the ask, feel free to send more if you have more ponderings, hope this helped somewhat! 🦈
