Well I thought I'd lighten the mood around here a bit and let us cast our minds back to a topic that has been around ever since time began. Which animal is your favourite? Which one do you think is amazing? Whcich one do you wish you could tame and keep as a pet? Which anaimal did you pretned to be when running around the park as a child?

I'm going to leave out cats and dogs in the poll as they are too familar. They shall be within the other option of the poll!

They asked for my favorite animal. Wolves be my favorite. I adopted a wolf from the Sawtooth Pack years ago (well, you know -- I donated money and they sent pictures and newsletters and stuff. No actual wolves came to live with me in my NYC apartment.)

Wolves
Eagles
Dolphins
Chimps
Elephants

Actually, I dont care much about animals. I like all of them the same. The only one I would like to have is either a falcon or a trained wolf/dog.

Horsies, or cats. I can't decide.

I had this brilliant idea... Make it compulsory for every household in the United Kingdom to own and keep a tiger in their house. This is brilliant for two reasons: An endangered species will be looked after, and burglary will be drastically reduced as burglars are eaten by tigers. A plan with no drawbacks! :)

Elephants, because they're intelligent, protective and caring of their young, and they mourn their dead. Human emotion in animals is always great to see, especially for the sapient species like elephants and dolphins.

Wolves, bears, dolphins, and elephants.

I can't decide which to vote for.

Edit: Went with bears, because our ursine brothers and sisters had only one vote. :(

Big kitty... like a Jaguar, or Panther.

I'm lazy, so walking the dog (canines) is not for me. but having a big cat that can double as a night watch critter... :D

I chose "other", as my favourite animal is the rat. They are actually very intelligent and even very clean animals.

IIRC it was the rat fleas that caused the problem.

Anyway, I reckon this is my favourite animal. The chances of me seeing a live one are not too good, so I had to settle for going to see this one.

Whatever the rats were still the ones that transported the "real" carriers around.

I love all animals equally, except insects, arachnids, myriapods, and the like.

Although, the most interesting animal, IMO, is the ratel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratel), a.k.a. honey badger (http://www.honeybadger.com/).

Wolves. They exemplify loyalty, fidelity, teamwork, self-sacrifice and true family values. Not to anthropomorphize, but if you study a pack of wolves over time, this is exactly what you see. It may be instinct driven rather than intellect driven, but, it is, to me, what make wolves so admirable.

Is that the rats' fault? I'm guessing they didn't have owners who could put flea powder on them.
