This month’s collaboration call highlight gathered opinions of team members; specifically, their thoughts on which animal would be the rudest if animals could talk?
Kaleigh
A specific animal is my fat dog. He can be so rude; he’s sassy without even speaking.
Blake
I’m gonna have to go with the honey badger. Have you guys seen them? They’re notorious for just being the rudest, meanest animals, and they’re super powerful. For example, they can go into a hornet’s nest, tear it apart, and just not care when 1000 hornets are stinging it. There are crazy videos of the honey badger not even being bothered by elephants. They’re fearless and vicious.
Mike
I’ll say goose. They always seem like they have a little ticked-off attitude.
Shawn
I think I’m gonna go with the Howler Monkey. If you watch any of those outdoor survival shows, those things will get up in the trees and scream at somebody that’s in their space, and then just carry on. I mean, they’re rude without even talking, so I’m going to go with those guys.
Mark
I think – hands down – it’s Dolly the llama.
Kristyn
I’ve thought long and hard about this, and I’m convinced it would be the ostrich. They look angry, and they come swinging with that long neck – oof! Or a kangaroo. Those things will knock you out, right? They’ll just come up and punch you.
Kelli
I’m gonna go with a 16-year-old girl that just woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Any 16-year-old, really, but definitely the females!
Jenn
Yeah, I may go with that, too.
Sheila
I was gonna say ostrich – I’m with Kristyn on those guys.
Kris
Just to choose something different, I’ll say a gorilla because I’ve been to the zoo a couple of times and they just chuck stuff at the window – food, bodily fluids, you never know. They’re pretty rude.
Dean
The first thing I thought of was – you might not think it – but the duck-billed platypus. And I think they’d be rude because they’re tired of being asked why they look like they’re made out of spare parts.
