In general we probably have some culturally similar ideas if we are in the same culture, and probably based more on movies then reality, but I dunno how far that would go? I have never tried to write a animal personality so I dunno.

Neither have I actually. I agree that though cultures may have differences (like what a hand gesture may mean for example) at the root we are more alike than not. Animals are more instinctive than logical though I think. They appear to be able to tell when someone means them harm but in other ways they are different from us. They don't do things for greed for example like a human being might.
