Or people might be missing the whole point that you do NOT have
to be an animagus to change to animal form. An Animagus is when
the person can change to a specific form AT WILL, without using
a potion or a wand.. Meaning they must be registered because
taking their wand away doesn't stop them from changing, unless
you actually think that Sirius had a wand in Azkaban?? Meaning
that if they commit a crime, they would need a special cell or
magic(s) to keep them from escaping. Animagi only need to be registered BECAUSE they don't need a wand or potion to change
like everyone else does. Dumbledore doesn't even need to be one
and I see no evidence that he is or isn't. He also knows magic
that Harry would not even know about, has many magical devices in
his office for which Harry hasn't a clue what they do and certainly has means of knowing what's going on without resorting to turning into an animal. I would more believe him to have seer powers than think he can turn into a gerbil or a wombat at will.... No, I
don't think he is one or has any reason to be one. He has plenty
of tricks up his sleeve that we have not witnessed yet without being 'another unregistered/registered' Animagi....
