If you could be an animal what animal would you be and why?

I am an animal. I'm a human. (I'm not sure that I like being one though.)

I would be a goat. 

They are my most favourite animal ever. Especially the little ones that hitch a ride on the back of a donkey. Near me is a horse and donkey sanctuary with a few goats. I sponsor a donkey called Del Boy, and his best mate is a Goat called Rodney. Watching them together is just amazing. 

Yep. The simple life of a Goat is the life for me!!!!

I would be a Sloth. I just love them and like that they spend all their lives up in the canopy, so peaceful.

Also they are never in a rush and just love their laidback nature, plus they have badass claws!

For my 9th bday I got to pet penguins at the aquarium. Well I couldve pet them but I got scared when they tried to eat my shoes lol.

Have you heard of Kumimanu fordycei? Its basically a giant penguin but its been extinct for ages

That’s the sort of thing I got into trouble for as a kid 

A squirrel. Have you seen their tails?! I want one of those. It would be fun jumping from tree to tree, and trying to circumvent the anti-squirrel devices to reach the delicious bounty of the bird-feeders. And I would appreciate the ability to scratch behind my ear with my hind leg.

A dolphin. 

X-ray vision...

I love them all. Lol. They might be my special interest as well, I own a few books on them too and frequently info dump about them. My favourite is the Chinstrap and Emperor penguins. But I think they are all so cute.

Penguins were a special interest of mine at a point. Do you have a specific species youd like? My favorites are Chinstrap, Adelie, and Fairy. 

People have told me that I seem like a badger so maybe ill be that.

I would like to be a reindeer because of Frozen.

I do like chimpanzees too. Id want to be every animal actually

I would be a penguin  I think they are cute, interesting and they prefer it cold and I can relate to that lol. I also walk with a bit of a waddle and I feel at home with them.

My first instinct was to say octopus, but I learned the other day that they live less than 5 years in general, so less keen on that now.

Maybe a whale? A big one. Or a whale shark, not many predators, but not too bothered about hunting either, just open the mouth and gollup. And you get to spend your time in the open ocean and spend a lot of time alone.

I would be a cat too. Absolute self confidence and knowing that all my needs will be provided for by lesser species.

I would be a cat.

Just doing my own thing, not caring about what's around me.
