If you were an animal, what kind of animal would you be and why?

If I were an animal, I would be a falcon because they are the fastest species of bird in the world. Apart from the speed of the animal, I also believe it would be extremely fascinating to have the power of flight. Falcon's are not close to becoming a defunct species, and in fact they are incredible predators due to their sense of smell, sight, etc. A falcon is the animal I would want to become because it flies at over 200 mph and makes a magnificent predator.
