[Discworld] Were the animal men Rincewind saw in Fourecks really animal men?

I know the helpful kangaroo entity was physically a kangaroo, but Rincewind saw many other citizens as animal-people. Were they really that or a magical illusion? Or maybe even a stress induced illusion? 

And for that matter, was Rincewind's shooting against the bandits magically assisted by the Kangaroo or just Rincewind being awesome?

By all indications they were in fact animal people, though curiously not as horribly warped as the fairy tale critters we met in "Witches Abroad," perhaps suggesting XXXX animals aren't as fundamentally at odds with human nature (maybe because they're just that dangerous?)

The Trickster was indeed helping Rincewind along. While he can do an impressive number of things, it's been confirmed time and again that he just can't do magic. He's BAD.
