About This Quiz

The Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is a type of self-reporting questionnaire that assesses one's personality based on how they socialize, make decisions, interpret their surroundings and different situations, as well as their lifestyle. Everyone's outcome is composed of four letters. The first is either "I" or "E" for introvert or extrovert. The second letter is "S" or "I" for sensing or intuition. The third letter is "T" or "F" for thinking or feeling, and the last is either "J" or "P" for judging or perceiving. In recent years, people have found a way to tie the idea of animal representation to your MBTI. 

There are a total of 16 possible outcomes when taking the test, but that does not mean that you can only be one of 16 animals. Depending on which website you use to find the animal equivalent to your MBTI, you will find that while many of the animals remain the same, some people have interchanged them with other suitable ones.

Would you like to find out which animal you are based on your Myers-Briggs personality type? Well, you're in the right place. Will you be as wise as an owl, as confident as a lion or something completely different? Take this quiz, and find out!
