If you could be any kind of animal, what would you be and why would you choose to be that kind of animal?
Me, I would like to be a dolphin because they are intelligent but they are also free in many situations. They get to spend their lives in the water and I've always been a huge fan of water. I would like to be able to experience their life out of captivity.

I would like to become the Tiger because, as so far my information concerns it is an animal having most apprehensive image. The name itself sounds royal TIGER. The look is even more pleasant. The walk, the power, the sharpness. I would like to live the Tiger Life. (but in the woods not in the cage okay)

I don't think that any of us would like to live life in captivity as an animal. At least I know that I wouldn't. Thank you very much for sharing.

A long time ago I had a sweet and intelligent granson aged 5. He had to pass a test to get into another school. He did not pass. The teacher asked him to draw an animal and he drew a man. The teacher said it was incorrect. Tomás told her that people were animals too. I agree. Tomás is not with us anymore but he taught me many things before he left.
I choose to be a woman. I´m comfortable being this kind of an animal. This old animal can still cry after 10 years of not having my little teacher around. My capacity to feel emotions is something I would not change for a pair of wings.

Humans are also animals, yer some don´t know that, but we do all fall under the category of "mammals"

I can't believe that the teacher had the audacity to tell your grandson that he was wrong. He was more intelligent than he ever could have known. I don't know where the teacher went to school, but they most definitely learned wrong because a person is an animal and perhaps the best one of all.

Any kind of Animal. I would have to choose a Tiger, or a Dragon. And it is a tough choice, both are very intelligent. Both are a symbol of power, though Dragons are usually wise as well. Both are agile, sleek, and attractive.
So that would be my choice, any animal ~Dragon~ any "real" animal ~Siberian Tiger~
Cheers.

The wisdom of a dragon would be very interesting to possess and the beauty of a Siberian tiger would be great to have as well. Thank you very much for sharing.

Human beings are quite possibly the greatest animal of all, I just think that it would be very neat to live in another body for a short period of time.

As long as you don´t get caught in those tuna fish traps set by fishermen then you will be free to explore all the oceans.

I love anything that has to do with water and I started to love dolphins when I was a child and that is the reason that I would love to be a dolphin.

I think if I have the choice to be any kind of animal, I wanna choose squirrel.It is so cute and shrewd. They can shuttle back and forth in the wood and feed on nutritious nut. They are the wizard of the forest. I wanna to be one of them, but it's not just because of that. My best-loved friend and I once made a wish we can keep a squirrel. Although we are not in the same city now, I really wanna to satisfy ours desires.

I really think your last reason for wanting to be a squirrel is a really neat reason. I also think that squirrels are very interesting animals as well.

I would be a cat because they get so much love and they get to sleep all day and play and not have a care in the world. I am a Leo so I think that would be the natural choice for me. I would love to be a cuddly soft kitty cat!

It would be nice to be able to be spoiled the way that a pet cat is. However, I don't think that I would like to live my life as a feral cat.

This is so very beautifully said. It would be nice to be a bird because we would have so many experiences that we as human beings are only able to dream about.

Hi dorannmwin! If I could be an animal, I want to be an eagle. Eagles soar high above the skies. It would be great to see the view from above, just like riding on the plane and seeing the view below. I would love to experience what its like to be flying.. Happy mylotting!

There are a lot of people that would like to see what it is like to experience the world as an eagle. I too think that it would be very interesting.

I would probably choose to be a bird. I would be free to go wherever I wanted to go, to fly across the globe and see the world from above. I would be able to do what we humans only dream of doing. Plus, because I would have the ability of flight, I would be a difficult target for both predators and hunters

All of these are great reasons to want to be a bird. I think that it would be very interesting to get to see everything that a bird has the opportunity to see.

From a fun standpoint, I think that it would be fun to be a rabbit. However, from the more practical standpoint of it, I'm not sure that I would be happy.

I love my dogs as well. There have always been dogs in our lives to serve as our companions and our protectors. Yes, it would be neat to be able to be a domestic dog.

I never really thought about the flexibility of a cat. You are completely correct, it is a great trait that cats have.

They are very interesting and diverse animals. I think that the range of abilities that a cat has is very interesting as well. Thank you very much for sharing.

I think it would be neat to be able to be a dog because of the fact that there are no two that are alike and that they are such loyal animals.

If I had to be a animal I would be a gorilla because these animals are very intelligent compared to human's intelligence it's pretty much the same. At Franklin Park zoo, there was a gorilla who scaled the wall escaped and was running the streets of Boston. They are very much like humans only they can't talk. Eventhough, they look mean I think they have a good heart. If they're not messed with, they won't mess with anybody. Mess with their babies all hell is going to brake loose. They're very protective of their young like most of us humans are. Love the strength and power that comes from within their bodies. Gorrillas eat very healthy foods like fruit and vegtables. Their big and strong, but they're not bullies.

Gorillas are very close to humans in many ways and you've mentioned them very well. They are smart and they are protective and their parenting style is very much like that of a human as well.
