About This Quiz

No one wants to mess with an apex predator! That's why they are the perfect animals to have living inside your soul. Apex predators sit at the top of the food chain, and you need a creature with their ferociousness to look out for the heart of your being. After you answer these questions about your soul, we'll let you know which one lives deep within you. 

Humans are also considered apex predators, but you already know that you are human. Your soul is the sum of your personality, your heart and your inner wisdom, and it needs something a little more savage than a politely mannered person looking out for you. Once we learn about your traits, the things that bother you or complete you, and the way you move through the world, the apex predator that resides in your soul will make itself known.

Whether you consider yourself to have a kind soul or an old soul, there's a fierce beast making sure that you stay safe. Knowing which one you are can help you approach your life in a completely different way. Answer each question as honestly as you can, and find out which predator makes sure you get exactly what you want!
