seems like most here wish the same attribute from animals as i do, the ability to fly, unaided by machine or other men. i would have chose snake, because i love reptiles (especially snakes, one of the most mis-understood creatures in the world if you ask me) but they have no real 'attribute' to offer, well atleast one that could compare to the eagle... i guess im glad i can't fly tho, cuz then i'd have to figure out how to light a bong/pipe or keep a joint/sweet lit while flying through the air at 40+ mph.... that might prove to be a bit difficult...
