== Origins ==
Indexed web registries points that the term was coined by Malchior on September 26, 2014 <ref name="Malchior"></ref> on a Tumblr post.

== Alterhuman organizations ==
Due to the large scope and opt-in nature of alterhuman, many public organizations which label themselves as alterhuman include a wide range of different identities in their focus. Some furry organizations have also chosen to incorporate certain furry-adjacent alterhuman individuals, such as therians and otherkin, within their own research as well.

====Freedom of Form Foundation====

The Freedom of Form Foundation (FFF) is a nonprofit corporation founded in 2018. The FFF funds and popularizes scientific research geared towards morphological freedom, including full-body changes which utilize the appearances or traits of other species.
