If you had to be an animal, what would you be and why.?

I tell you mine. My pet dog. He has the easiest life I've ever seen anybody have. No school, no work, no responsibility for paying bills, free room and board, free food, gets to exercise basically whenever he wants, gets to sleep whenever he wants. Am I forgetting anything?...

Yeah, sounds like a good life to me.

    You mean a specific animal? Or a species?

    Probably some kind of bird. maybe an eagle, since humans generally tend to respect them and it's illegal to kill one. Being able to fly would also be pretty awesome, and make it easy to escape predators. That being said, the animal I would LEAST like to be is a chicken, seeing as they are one of the most abused and exploited animals on the planet. So strange how we treat two birds so differently...

    Perhaps a crow or a raven. They are rather elegant birds, and I would appreciate the freedom above all else.

    A human being, because that's the best animal to be, the crown of creation.

    I would be a cat because no one expects anything from a cat. People know they like to be by themselves and if they feel like being outgoing, they can.

    I would be my pet cat for similar reasons but cats are more agile and better at parcore so that makes them better
