The animal test says I'm a bumble bee. it said that the bumble bee is very wise and serious. this is about accurate except I joke around too much though I am serious when I have to be.

I'm an INFP. I'm very familiar with this personality system.
If you are a "badger" then you fall into 1 of 4 main categories of temperament. (I can't remember what the badger is). Each category has 4 personality types.
There are 16 total types.

I took various test. Some were better than others. Also I wanted to make sure that the validity of these test were accurate so the bigger the sampling the more accurate the results might be. These are not the original Myers/Briggs test (you have to pay for that) but I think if you take a good sampling of various test you might get and accurate result. Also take the same test several times just to be on the safe side. The "What Animal Am I" personality test is probably not the most accurate test and just for grins since there are only 7 questions. I don't know what the definitive animal personality test would be... maybe Ozzyrules can tell us which test to take.

Which animal personality test do you recommend? I was a badger on one test and a wildcat on another.

I'm not sure what the animal test is. But there is a standard temperament test that groups into 4 categories: Lion, Badger, Dog, and I forget the 4th one. These 4 also branch into the 16 personality types.
There are plenty of websites with tests and/or descriptions of the various types. Just search on Myers Briggs and you will probably get a lot of results. You should not have to pay for any of them.

Looks like Ozzy and I are part of the same 1% of the population - INFP.
From Keirsey.com's description:
"The Portait of the Healer (INFP)
Healer Idealists are abstract in thought and speech, cooperative in striving for their ends, and investigative and attentive in their interpersonal relations. Healer present a seemingly tranquil, and noticiably pleasant face to the world, and though to all appearances they might seem reserved, and even shy, on the inside they are anything but reserved, having a capacity for caring not always found in other types. They care deeply-indeed, passionately-about a few special persons or a favorite cause, and their fervent aim is to bring peace and integrity to their loved ones and the world.
Healers have a profound sense of idealism derived from a strong personal morality, and they conceive of the world as an ethical, honorable place. Indeed, to understand Healers, we must understand their idealism as almost boundless and selfless, inspiring them to make extraordinary sacrifices for someone or something they believe in. The Healer is the Prince or Princess of fairytale, the King's Champion or Defender of the Faith, like Sir Galahad or Joan of Arc. Healers are found in only 1 percent of the general population, although, at times, their idealism leaves them feeling even more isolated from the rest of humanity.
Healers seek unity in their lives, unity of body and mind, emotions and intellect, perhaps because they are likely to have a sense of inner division threaded through their lives, which comes from their often unhappy childhood. Healers live a fantasy-filled childhood, which, unfortunately, is discouraged or even punished by many parents. In a practical-minded family, required by their parents to be sociable and industrious in concrete ways, and also given down-to-earth siblings who conform to these parental expectations, Healers come to see themselves as ugly ducklings. Other types usually shrug off parental expectations that do not fit them, but not the Healers. Wishing to please their parents and siblings, but not knowing quite how to do it, they try to hide their differences, believing they are bad to be so fanciful, so unlike their more solid brothers and sisters. They wonder, some of them for the rest of their lives, whether they are OK. They are quite OK, just different from the rest of their family-swans reared in a family of ducks. Even so, to realize and really believe this is not easy for them. Deeply committed to the positive and the good, yet taught to believe there is evil in them, Healers can come to develop a certain fascination with the problem of good and evil, sacred and profane. Healers are drawn toward purity, but can become engrossed with the profane, continuously on the lookout for the wickedness that lurks within them. Then, when Healers believe thay have yielded to an impure temptation, they may be given to acts of self-sacrifice in atonement. Others seldom detect this inner turmoil, however, for the struggle between good and evil is within the Healer, who does not feel compelled to make the issue public.
Princess Diana, Richard Gere, Audrey Hephurn, Albert Schweiter, George Orwell, Karen Armstrong, Aldous Huxley, Mia Farrow", and Isabel Meyers are examples of a Healer Idealists."
