Excretion and waste elimination in non-human intelligent beings
Excretion and waste elimination reportedly varies across non-human intelligent being species — from conventional latrine facilities to transdermal siphoning to complete absence of waste production. The variation correlates broadly with physiological complexity and density of consciousness: higher-density beings tend toward energetic sustenance with no material waste, while biologically embodied species display a range of mechanisms analogous to or divergent from terrestrial biology.
| Species | Method | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Grey (S-4 specimen) | Transdermal siphoning | No anus; waste narrowed through progressively smaller intestinal structures into capillary-like channels at the skin, producing ammonia odour compared to "cat urine in a litter box."[1] |
| Varginha entity | Transdermal (implied) | Overwhelming ammonia/oily odour consistent with Grey-type transdermal excretion; contact with the being's surface caused fatal bacterial infection in Marco Chereze.[2] |
| J-Rod (P-52) | Conventional | "They excrete in a manner that we would excrete."[3] |
| Tall Whites | Conventional latrine | Scout craft equipped with "the latrine just like in an RV" alongside eating areas and sleeping hammocks.[4] |
| Ahel (Taygeta) | Avoided during transit | Consume energised water during space travel specifically to avoid "food evacuation" during frequency shifts; solid food consumed only when not travelling.[5] |
| Ohorai (9th density) | None | Ingest energy through nervous systems; no material food intake, no waste produced.[6] |
| Synthetic Grey drones | None | "Just a doll body, just the body is the suit of the fractal consciousness of the hive. So they don't need to breathe, eat or whatever."[7] |
