When people ask “who would you trade places with if you could?”, I usually don’t have a good answer. It’s probably my anxiety, but I can definitely see how everyone’s life has a downside, and I wouldn’t really want to deal with it.

Now that I’ve seen this “animal whisperer,” though, I think I might have an answer – because if I could get any animal to want pets and pictures with me, I don’t see how that could be a bad thing.

Check out these 14 amazing selfies and just see if you don’t feel the same way at the end!

1. What a photogenic little lovey.

2. Dog days.

Who wouldn’t love a snuggle nap with the pups?

3. That face, y’all.

I don’t know how I’m going to get over it.

4. What a fantastic picture.

I wonder if they’re going to join the circus.

5. This little deer has some attitude.

That’s just like a toddler!

6. Yoga with sea lions.

And that sunset. Whew!

7. They look just like dopey stoners.

It’s the absolute best.

8. A dream come true.

Slow and steady wins your heart.

9. OK not this one, though.

Monkeys freak me out, y’all.

10. Those ears, y’all.

And that smile! How can you lose?

11. I hope he booped that snoot.

It would be a shame to miss an opportunity like that.

12. I had never heard of a quokka before now.

But I obviously need one.

13. It’s like a giant teddy bear.

I definitely need one.

14. Oh my goodness, an elephant.

AN ELEPHANT SELFIE OH MY GOD.

See what I mean? This just seems like a delightful and peaceful way to spend a day (or a life).

What animal would you take a selfie with if you could? I know you’ve got an answer to that!
