AN: For the sake of copyright, I probably won't use direct quotes and also because this is an AU anyways so… As always, any ideas you'd like to share, by all means however I've already chosen their daemons.

"Well if you're an alien, how come you have a daemon?" Martha demanded as they ran to a hiding spot.
"Hey!" The Doctor instantly went to cuff Missius while Martha instantly apologized, and grabbed her kinkajou daemon's tail.
The Doctor huffed, staring at Martha before checking their surroundings. Clear of the Judoon, the Doctor turned to Martha and offered his hand; Missius flew to sit on it, coldly regarding the medical student.
"This is Missius," the Doctor said, "By earth terms, she is my daemon. She is real. All Time Lords have one or two of them and she's just like your friend there."
Martha and her daemon examined Missius for a moment before she looked at the Doctor. "This is Sange," she said.
"Nice to meet you," Missius nodded and returned to the Doctor's breast pocket.
"Likewise," Sange nodded, securing himself around Martha's neck.
"Alright, introductions over, back to the Judoon please," the Doctor looked out again and then they were running.
"But I don't understand!" Martha shouted, then quieted when shushed. "If you're an alien, and have a daemon, then why don't those Judoon guys?"
"Not all planets have daemons, and besides the Judoon do," the Doctor replied. "You just don't see them."
"What do you mean?" Martha asked.
"Are they small?" Sange wondered, "Like an oxpecker? Or a tick?"
"No nothing like that. Some species evolve to become one with their daemons," the Doctor explained, "The Judoon only started looking like Earth rhinos a few centuries ago they originally looked human and had rhino daemons."
Martha compulsively took Sange into her arms. "But why-? I mean-," she couldn't find the words.
"Most species do it to further their survival, or sometimes it just happens," the Doctor patted his pocket softly, "others, like the Judoon, do it out of greed or power. The Judoon thought they'd become better police if the strength of their daemons were within their bodies."
"That's terrible," Martha said softly.
"That's evolution and adaptation, usually anyways," the Doctor replied, "Science."
Suddenly the Doctor stopped. "Wait," he looked at Martha. "You said the alien was drinking from that man? With a straw you said?"
"Yea," Martha asked in confusion.
"Brilliant!" the Doctor exclaimed excitedly, going to a window.
"I don't see how, " Martha followed.
"It's brilliant because their daemon revealed themselves; look," Martha complied, and flinched. There was a mosquito-looking bug on the Doctor's hand, but bigger, and purple.
"What is that?" Sange asked, protectively curling around Martha's neck.
"A plasmavore's companions; one of a swarm that's somewhere around here. Use 'em to find the best food source," the Doctor blew on his hand, and the bug flew away. "We follow that and she'll lead us right to the queen. Come on Martha!"
End.

There you go. So that's why some aliens look like Earth animals. They evolved from human like forms with their daemons. I might add more on this subject later so stay-tuned.
