So we asked our loyal Facebook Fans what animal should represent Independents, and got some interesting responses...

**Most Popular Response:** Owl *"because we are wise"*

**Close Second:** Eagle *"signifying its freedom from the tyranny of the two party dictatorship"*

**Honorable Mention:** Tyrannosaurus Rex with robotic gun arms

**Personal Favorite:** The honey badger because they're the world's most fearless creature
