Another quizzical moment

So: dogs are known for being loyal; cats, aloof; donkeys, stubborn; rabbits, high-strung... What animal is known for being thoughtful?

I was thinking maybe herons, but that's more "patient".

Jen suggests "owls." Or possibly "turtles." I thought of orangutangs. I googled "thoughtful animals" and came up with:

Yeah, I think like Jen; turtles is what seemed most right to me. I was just hoping for something non-reptilian. ;) Good article...

Rabbits . . .

High-strung. . that's not what *I* think of when I think of rabbits. ::evil laugh:: High-strung is poodle. For thoughtful, I agree with cochese, a higher primate. Although I thought of chimp.

Jeremy says orangutangs and I think, "Dr. Zeus! Dr. Zeus!"
