Walking in an animal's shoes

If you would have to be any animal for 1 year which one would you choose and why?
@amiablePeace77
No.no. I would never like to be an animal for a year. How terrible.

Dear Amiable Peace,
I would choose 1981.
Some highlights from 1981, and why I would prefer to be an animal that year only:
January 20: Ozzy Osbourne bites the head off a bat on stage in Des Moines, Iowa.
January 31: 10 Arabian oryx are released in Oman. The animal is extinct except in zoos.
May 3: Ronald Reagan begins weekly 5 minute radio broadcasts.
May 23: Colin Wilson rides a surfboard for 294 miles.
June 24: The US Supreme Court rules that Presidents can’t be sued for actions in office.
July 2: Larry Walters rises to 16,000 feet, using a lawn chair and 42 helium balloons.
September 14: In Red Lodge, Montana, 36 inches of snow is recorded.
October 6: Cats opens on Broadway NYC at Winter Garden Theatre. It would run for nearly 18 years, before closing on September 10th, 2000.
November 23: The FCC drops its limits on duration and frequency of advertisements.
December 23: In Times Beach, Missouri, the United States Environmental Protection Agency announces that it has found dangerous levels of dioxin in the soil. Dioxin can cause health problems such as issues with reproduction, development and the immune system.
