Funnily enough tigers themselves could be said to inhabit that end of the spectrum.

The solitary habits of tigers are well known enough, leaving them well predisposed to libertarianism and tigers are much more prone to sharing with those with less power which is a pretty good prod towards more leftist economic policy.

[quote]George Schaller observed a male share a kill with two females and four cubs. Unlike male lions, male tigers allow females and cubs to feed on the kill before the male is finished with it; all involved generally seem to behave amicably, in contrast to the competitive behaviour shown by a lion pride.[/quote]

Strangely enough, I've used both of those comparisons to explain my views to people before.

Okay now this is just getting weird.

Lets see, the non-traditional family structures practiced by some tigers suggests they ought to lean left as well.

If you haven't heard of Zaalim's story before I heartily recommend this. While he's not the focus of the documentary it does spend some time observing the moment when Zaalim went from a notably hostile male tiger to being a truly exceptional tiger-dad.

Just throwing in my two cents here:

After taking the test again it seems I'm moving again on the charts.

I'll admit I didn't really understand a lot of the questions, but I got what I expected

Got what I expected too.

^ As I expected, I got almost the same as you, Amy.

Makes sense ^^
