CULTURE/SOCIETY: Test about Animals for Consultants

This is a cute little test I received from my mother.

Subject: Executive Capability

This is short, but I think will make you smile.

The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and will
tell you whether you are qualified to be a "professional."

Scroll down for each answer. The questions are NOT that
difficult.

But don't scroll down UNTIL you have answered the question!
