Poppy Hapalopus

Hi, welcome! My name is Poppy Hapalopus and you've somehow found my personal website :)

I'm alterhuman (bison/Ben 10/gnoll otherkind, unicorn/Tarzan/spider otherhearted), which is probably what most of my writings will be about.

Other than alterhumanity, I'm interested in bugs, animal husbandry, Scandinavian folklore, and kitsch collecting.

I can be contacted at the following links (in order of how quick I'll be to respond):

2024/09/12: Did some digging into the history of the Danish otherkin (and otherkin-adjacent) communities. Click here to read!

2024/08/11: Finished the introductory classes to zookeeping and moved into my first real apartment! No more dorm rooms for me!!! Now I just gotta find a zoo that'll take me on as an apprentice so I can take the rest of the classes. Wish me luck!

2024/09/10: Thought I was gonna spend the summer adding and editing stuff on my site but oops! I applied to zookeeper school, got in, and spent all summer preparing. Currently busy feeding monkeys and parrots :D

2024/06/14: New essay - ruminations on undesired changes I've gone through in the past year :')

2024/03/01: I'm still alive, I just had to finish my studies - guess who finally has a degree in Animal Science! :D

2023/10/22: The site has a library and a site map now!

2023/08/24: New essay up about bison migrations, from a bison's perspective (note: I'm not a bovologist, so don't take this as scientific fact about bison psychology or behavior - I am a bison, though, so at least give it a chance before dismissing it as bull ;))

2023/06/22: After 5 years I finally wrote a definition for "paratype"!!

2023/06/19: Finished my mealworm thesis and found the time to write a new alterhuman essay :D

2023/04/26: I should be writing a summary of mealworm reproductive behavior for uni, instead I started posting my Bella Sara collection here. Oops! Also I'm really bad at remembering to update this logbook, sorry :P

2023/03/20: Started working on the library and noematapedia

2023/03/12: Uploaded all the alterhuman essays from my old website
