Is this a real thing? Apparently it's when a human being believes that they are really an animal and were born in the wrong body. With the Internet I'm not sure what to believe anymore, but I can't help but wondering how this is considered normal behavior and why these people don't get help. I'm not trying to be rude I only say that out of concern. These people don't seem to be pretending, they seem to really believe it.

The problem is, that society nolonger has any way of measuring what is or is not 'normal'

take a look at:-

[…][T]here is plenty of evidence showing that “transgendering” is a “psychological rather than a biological matter,” said Dr. McHugh.
“In fact, gender dysphoria—the official psychiatric term for feeling oneself to be of the opposite sex—belongs in the family of similarly disordered assumptions about the body, such as anorexia nervosa and body dysmorphic disorder,” said McHugh.

Transexual's used to be treated in the same way as people who think they need a limb amputated, and yes there are such people.

If I may suggest staying away from web sites that spread this sort of information.

There are also people that believe they are really the opposite gender and were born in the wrong body.

Exactly, but you have to admit that that seems more normal than this.

No.
I don't have to admit that.
Both types of dysphoria are equally nuts.

There are people who identify as animals. Mental illness exists. If people who flip out are called mentally ill then so are people who identify as animals.

God created male and female of all species without any mistakes in gender or type of species. It's the mental capacity of the mind, sometimes to do with certain dramas in ones life or style of life even from a young age that causes them to believe they are something else other than what God created them to be.

Age doesn't always have to do with it though. When I was a little kid I wanted to be dog and a cat and a lion, mermaid, etc. As you can see I'm perfectly happy being who God created me to be now. Although I must admit, I love being a girl but I am a bit of a tomboy.
