Transitioning Kobudai Fish
Have you ever wondered if animals can transition their genders? Probably not...
Well, regardless, I am here to inform you that there are an upwards of 65,000+ creatures on our planet that can naturally transition from female to male or male to female
For example, the Kobudai of Japan
This fish, starting out as female, will grow until it reaches peak size for male hormones to start flooding its body, naturally transitioning its sex from female to male. Once they have fully transitioned into male, they then begin to mate with female fish
Isn't this WILD??
They get big to a point of producing male hormones, transition, then begin mating with fish remaining female...
I hope this blows your mind like it did mine
Not only do these fish do this... but there are 65,000 other creatures on our planet capable of similar processes!!!!!! Whatttt!!!!
What do YOU think about this?
I encourage you to invest in further research on this topic, see what you find and learn :)) return to share, if you please :)

Do every female transition automatically, or is it only a limited amount? Like, if a female does not mate by a certain point will the change just happen involuntarily, or is it a conscientious decision?
Hi! Thank you for your comment :)
So, what I read, they transition due to environmental factors like sea temperature and social dominance cues
Primarily dominate females in a territory will transition, not every fish undergoes this process
The transition is irreversible
So... the transition takes place involuntarily due to hormonal triggers caused by environmental factors, age, and size :)
Hello! I find your website to be very insightful. I was wondering how you feel about “transpecies” or “therian” individuals, as it is something I identify with but never quite received support or understanding for. Ever since I was young, I identified more with tundra wolves, like my soul was born into the wrong body. I have always felt more at peace when acting like a wolf than a human, and I’ve never identified with the Homo sapien label. Things that bring me comfort include practicing quadrobics, wearing ears/tail/paws, being in the wilderness, hunting, etc. I sometimes get memories from a past life roaming with my pack. The dysphoria can be crushing some days, but I know deep down who I truly am… it’s just very unfortunate that there are no procedures that could ever truly turn me into who I really am, or at the very least make others see me for who I really am… all I have ever received is judgment and cruelty.
Thanks for your comment!
I apologize for the late reply <3
I am sorry to hear that you have felt rejection due to the way you feel inside
So... I have a few things I would like to express in regards to the matters you have shared
The most important aspect of this is that you love and accept yourself... then, it doesn't matter how anyone else feels about or views your truth
Parallel, that is exactly what it is; YOUR truth
If you have memories of a past life of being a wolf, one, that is pretty cool, two, maybe you are human now to experience this version of yourself
There is always more to learn, no matter what form we are in
Every life we live plays an important role in our souls journey of experiencing and learning lessons
Being human, now, has you in a better position to help wolves... you can advocate for them, donate to wolf rehabilitation, and help in other ways wolf version you wouldn't be able to
It is okay that you feel this way, I don't think your wrong, weird, or crazy. I accept your feelings as true to you
Maybe you can also help bring awareness to the everyday effects on life for people who experience this
There are names/words for this experience, so, you are not alone; there are others like you ♡
Societal norms are changing; humanity is opening up, being more honest about internal worlds/struggles
People are becoming more accepting and less willing to harm others
I, personally, have learned on my own journey that we can feel, think, believe things that aren't actually true to who we are. If you truly know, you know. I am not saying this is your case... however, it is something I have recognized as truth through my own experiences
I truly believe the world is healing; that includes the evolution of beliefs and feelings around people who share stories like yours
This is a place for you, just as it is everyone else
There are many ways you can channel these feelings and truth into art that may help you heal, evolve, and learn to understand more about your experience
Allow yourself to flow and create; bring to material what you feel
I bet some pretty cool wolf pieces will come out of it :))
I am sorry, I understand how intensely our internal worlds can cause us to feel
I think you are the right wolf in the right human costume 🫶
Maybe when you die you will wake up as a wolf having a crazy dream 🐺
There may not be procedures, but we definitely have access to unlimited tools/supplies that can help you physically embody your wolf nature... especially if you have professional grade makeup done
The right people will see you 😊
In this life, you get to figure more out about yourself and learn how to navigate with these feelings. You get to figure out what works for you and what helps you step into your purpose; the reason the Universe has you here ✨️
I hope you live a happy life 😊
Peace out ✌️ ☮️ 🕊 🐺 🌿 ☀️
