When you’re hiking in the woods with someone you’ve known for the better part of a decade, you’re bound to recycle some questions about the other person. Case in point, if you could be any animal, which one would you be?

It’s the only animal that makes sense, I’m almost always clad in pink or peach, I squawk strange sounds that are inaudible to most beings, and would spend my entire life in the water if I could. While I might come back as a flamingo in my next life, here are my picks for channeling the sassy and flamboyant creature during this lifetime. What animal would you be?
