I want to be a DRAGON from the inhertance cycle so I can read people's minds and do magic.

 

[Kalinychta]

Elephant’s trunk - being able to snort water and then drench people with it... There’s no telling how often such an ability would prove useful.

Not only is the snozzwanger fictional, I also gave it a fictional attribute outside of the literature.

 

[Vindicator Phoenix]

I want a koala's capacity to survive, while sleeping for 22 hours per day.

Or... maybe, I just want the impunity.

hmm banned for fictionalization!

 

[Raggamuffin]

Flying seems nice, but I'd recommend wrapping up warm so you don't freeze to death.

For me, I'd prefer biological immortality akin to the jellyfish Turritopsis Dohrnii.

Ageing, and then reverse ageing - a continuous cycle. Seems nicer than the idea of living forever, because I can't envision you'd be youthful if you did that. I picture being excessively old and shrivelled like a prehistoric raisin.

[SusanLR]

Flight and sight like a Falcon.

 

[The Q]

Mantis shrimp eyesight is pretty inviting in terms of how much they is to see in the world.
Or more practically, the strength and endurance of big grazing animals like bison and horses would just be cool.

 

[Pieplup]

I want to be a DRAGON from the inhertance cycle so I can read people's minds and do magic.

I'd also be able to fly and never age.

 

[Mary Terry]

I'd like to have a pig's intelligence. Pigs are the philosophers of the animal world.

[Ursus Chainus]

Once when I went to the dentist, they gave me a questionnaire that asked "what would you change about your teeth to make them perfect" It was an odd question but I had the answer right away...

I would have the teeth of a shark. They are very sharp, numerous and there is always a new row of teeth to replace ones that fall out. I wonder if anyone read that questionnaire. They certainly did not make my teeth perfect that day
