When Shakyamuni attained and then taught Enlightenment, he realized he needed to extend the psychological meaning of mundane words to attempt to describe the facets and character of being and Enlightenment.

One predominating feature of Animality is the EGO within a societal structure. Power dynamics, brute force rule and cowardice. A volatile mind state that can be used constructively but left in control can be the ruin of any relationship.

A constant state of craving, unsatiable and self destructive. One of the three lower paths (worlds) of experience.
