If one had to characterize INTJ's with an animal.. - Page 3

**TruorTupnm** · 11-01-2007, 01:31 AM

The correct answer: Turtle. Solitary, predatory, cold-blooded, tough, mellow. Makes all kinds of sense, to myself.

**Nightelf** · 11-11-2007, 10:15 AM

Yess, that's my opinion too. Especially turtles living in the sea, swimming hundreds of miles, living for more than a hundred years. etc. Turtles are also símbols of knowledge(/wisdom?)..

**NeonTetra** · 11-11-2007, 01:06 PM

Bushbucks?
Bobcats?
Komodo Dragons?

**Paul V** · 11-11-2007, 04:51 PM

Wolves or foxes. We like to work in packs as long as everyone knows what to do. Otherwise, we're on our own.

**mind_wander** · 11-11-2007, 06:54 PM

I would say: Fish because I do like water or this albino squirrel because I am rare.

**Circe** · 11-11-2007, 07:19 PM

I think I'm more like an African Wolf (alternate names: Ethiopian Wolf and Canis Simensis ;if you want to look it up). Isolated, different, and extremely rare. They're almost like a cross between a wolf and a fox- they live in packs, but hunt alone.

mind_wander- where did you get that picture of an albino squirrel? I know I've seen several when I visited Brevard (tiny little college town). Apparently the squirrel population there has some kind of freakish mutated gene.

**mind_wander** · 11-11-2007, 08:56 PM

Well, I found the picture online, like google it. But, your lucky to find alot of them, they are near to extinction

, quite rare.

**deicruxified** · 11-11-2007, 10:22 PM

as what i've said before

WOLF!!

**Charlie Mc.** · 11-12-2007, 01:01 PM

I am often compared to a bear. I think this fits well. Clever, powerful, normally solitary, but intensely loyal when it is in a relationship (ie mother bear with cubs). Also quite versatile and adaptable.

**cielo market** · 11-12-2007, 02:38 PM

I am a chimera:

Independence of a wolf.
Freedom of a bird.
Wisdom of an owl.
Arrogance of a cat.
Nobility of a horse.
Cleverness of a fox.

*rawr* :3

I've hypothesized a small number of inter-personal theories in which I consider my role to be that of a "dragon."

I was thinking fox or raccoon too.

**travler2001** · 11-17-2007, 11:49 AM

I've always thought of myself as being like a dragon...solitary, clever, and powerful.
But INTJ's in general do seem rather owlish to me.

**BlackHawk** · 11-17-2007, 01:46 PM

Come on, people! Hasn't anyone thought mountain lion? Definitely intelligent, solitary normally but devoted to a select few, and they fit the whole predator thing (plus they look cool!).
The african wolf fits these, too, so it'd be my runner-up.

**Lucid** · 11-18-2007, 12:30 PM

You know, I'm torn between the wolf and the cat (of any sort). Perhaps it varies from INTJ to INTJ, since some are more solitary than others.
I think the turtle is not aggressive enough (although I do like turtles in general). It seems to me that many of the INTJs I know are somewhat aggressive, especially when it comes to arguments. When it comes to debating and discussing I think we're one of the most predatory types out there.

**The Many** · 11-18-2007, 04:14 PM

I guess it depends on the INTJ. Some are owls, myself I used to do a "lone wolf" analogy, until I came to the conclusion that I am human, all too human (you just have to love pretentious quotes). I do see a lioness in certain female INTJ, though...

**More Tea** · 11-18-2007, 06:19 PM

Wolves work. I loved wolves growing up, when all the other kids thought they were "bad" because of stories and movies. I've even dreamed of being a wolf on multiple occasions, and being in that form was a great deal more pleasant than being a towering, clumsy human. Just saying.

Or how about African Wild Dogs? They are unusual looking and have the intelligence and loyalty of wolves, but unlike their lupine friends, they are much more dangerous to humans. Always loved them too.

Raptors work too, naturally.

**BlackHawk** · 11-20-2007, 05:37 PM

If we're going with raptors, we have to be some type of accipiter! Lying in wait to dart out and subdue unsuspecting, inferior minded prey!

**godshadowdeath** · 11-20-2007, 08:43 PM

squirels for they are free in thought you see them every where even in the cities and no matter what you try you cant catch up to them

**Nomad** · 11-20-2007, 10:03 PM

I used to trap squirrels as food when I was a child. i had no trouble with it as a five year old.

Hah, its definitely got the look. I find them intimidating in real life as well.

I'd have to go with that African Wolf so far.

I've always felt an affinity to the Wombat though -

I would say elephant. We'll let the lions be the lions, but when it comes down to it they are not fucking with us.

Tortoises- they can retreat inside their carapace whenever they feel like it.
