Correct. So you see an animagus can still think like a witch or wizard but you need to remember one of the most important facts about becoming one. When I transfigure into my form, I lose the ability to perform any other magic besides that. The spell to transfigure uses all my magical talents for that time I stay in my animagus form. I can't so much use the simplest of other spells. So the spell is in some way dangerous. Example, James Potter was a stag, if he were in that form and a hunter tried to shoot him. James could not use the spell we learn in your first lesson this term to transfigure a large stone into a shield. He would have had to first transfigure into a physical human body."

That brings use to how an animagus returns to their human form." McAiken stopped for moment, "Are there any question up to this point?"
