So I posted this on /r9k/ and they recommended getting /an/'s opinion on this:

I need some advice. I'm applying for an internship and for some weird reason one of the companies I'm applying to wants me to write a 100 word or less essay on what what animal I'd like to be and why.

Do you have any recommendations on anything that would be meaningful, or do you know what they're trying to get out of it?

tl;dr If you could be any animal, what would you be and why?

Since I'm sure someone will think about posting this, I'm going to go ahead and say Inb4blobfish
