Sangie Nativus, previously known as Toboe[1] (real name James Hoyt), is a furry DJ and the founder and owner of InkedFur.

Fandom involvement[edit]

Sangie has been active in the furry fandom since 2006. Starting off as a gray wolf, in 2007 he fell in love with red wolves and decided to base his character on them, as he felt the most similar to that breed.

Sangie has lived in many places throughout his life, being involved in the fandom in most of these places. He has lived in Austin, Texas; Orlando, Florida; Louisville, Kentucky; Denver, Colorado; and Salt Lake City, Utah.

He was first involved with the ColoFurs group in 2006, Fritz_Fox being one of the first furries he met in person. This was his introduction to the fandom. Later, he's been involved with Utah furs and the Lone Star Furs.

InkedFur[edit]

The main thing Sangie loves in the fandom is artwork of all types. Starting off as an art collector himself, he saw there was no consistency in quality from artists doing their own prints, so he decided to launch InkedFur as a print service for artists and for fans.

Music[edit]

DJ hobbyist[edit]

When he first joined the fandom, Sangie noticed how much furries loved dance music, and started DJing for the fandom. He has DJed at several furry conventions and also held a professional club residency, and used to have an FM weekly radio show in 2006.

Furry FM and Fur.dance[edit]

Sangie's love of music led to him sharing it with the furry fandom. He started off by helping Binx with Furry FM, doing a weekly radio show. Due to the stress of managing a station, Binx passed the torch to Sangie to continue working on. Unfortunately, he was unable to keep a strong audience and handed the station to Furocity Radio.

Due to disagreements in the direction the station should go, Sangie left Furocity Radio, leaving them with the station. He then worked with his previous staff to try to launch a new station called Fur.dance. Unfortunately, he did not have the time needed to devote to it as he was focused on InkedFur still.

Controversy[edit]

Sangie has been accused of being a pedophile due to old mugshots, now removed due to inaccuracies, and his love and support of cub artists. He was also friends with Nelizar, aka SnakeThing, which also further painted him in a bad light. Sangie is not listed in any sex offender database proving he was never convicted of any sex crime. When doing a background report on him, it comes up with no charges at all.[2]

Sangie was forthright in his now deleted FurAffinity journal indicated the arrests concerned interacting with an underage individual on the internet when Sangie thought they were 19 when he messaged them on Pounced.[3] Later, Sangie posted that a Utah attorney got his criminal record expunged in 2018 due to completing probation and the charge being "Dealing in Harmful Material to a Minor" which is not a sex offense[4] and sex offenses in Utah can never be expunged.[5]
