   • Your "Therian symbol", the Theta Delta, is incorrectly drawn: The bar of Theta should have crossbars on the ends, while Delta's left face should be noticeably thinner than the other two. In any event, it doesn't appear to be very "common" or "well-liked", given this is the first I've seen of it. 2006 March 18, Jure Sah, “Free Sibe”, in alt.horror.werewolves, Google Groups:
   • Hey psst would anyone be interested in buying a theta-delta (therian symbol thing) soft enamel pin if I custom ordered some? I'm baffled that they don't already exist 2018 August 3, CoyoteTraveller, Twitter:
   • I think that's a pretty neat logo and I definitely prefer it to the Theta-Delta (which makes me think of dentists...and it's just an ugly symbol to me). I think that logo is cute and could be easily worn on a t-shirt though I think the hoof print needs resized. 2012 October 4, Arawn, “An Awesome Therian Logo”, in Werelist:
   • Guten morgen, I appreciate the advice! Very smart… that could actually work, although, she may recognize the delta in the theta delta, since she watches those alpha männlich videos with my father… 2023 October 14, u/Grandma_Biter, “How do I convince my mom the theta delta is a different symbol?”, in r/Therian, Reddit:
