Personality type Monkey,

Strengths: Monkeys are often personable, expressive and out going.

Weaknesses: Monkeys will interrupt and sometimes not listen well.

If you meet a monkey, you would know, because we like to hear ourselves talk.

Finally, monkeys will often disagree with lions and owls, because they prefer a more structured atmosphere, whereas monkeys enjoy be spontaneous and make decisions on the go.
