Because if he was you'd be dead by now. Their substance is inimical to life, they tend to kill and maim any living things- including humans- they encounter in various painful ways if they don't enslave them- so you'd either be dead, missing a few limbs, or little more than a puppet.

There have been animal imPorts before. Sometimes the Porter lets them turn into humans, as it does with AI. But it's not common. The only one I can think of at the moment is Komasan.
