Pets are common
A lot of people keep pets. Some keep a dog, a cat, a bird, or even a mouse or a hamster. It is normal to keep pets, and many people keep multiple pets. Pets are a fantastic roommate and help level up anxiety and reduce stress and depression levels.
Things get weird when you realise that some people keep animals like tigers and monkeys as pets!! These are wild animals, and some species are rare as well. They are expensive to buy and maintain, but some do it just for their interest.
What are exotic animals?
Exotic animals like tigers and monkeys are supposed to be kept in the wild as that is their habitat. They are supposed to live in the wild and among their species. However, some people keep those animals as pets to show off their money or interest.
It is cruel to force a living being to leave their habitat and live in another place not suitable for them.
People buy these rare animals for personal use and don’t care about their lives. This is a cruel practice as it is not safe for these animals to be living in a different habitat. Even when you create an optimal artificial environment for these species, they are still not supposed to be living among humans. So it is unsafe for them and humans as well.
Is it safe?
Exotic animals are wild animals supposed to live in the wild and away from humans. However, they can harm humans, as wild animals are taught to protect themselves against damage or danger.
In addition, it is dangerous for both humans and wild animals to live together as they face issues with adapting to each other. Humans need to be careful around these animals as they can attack at any time, and they need to be trained to be kept as pets. It is also unsafe for the animals, as they may get sick in a foreign place and may even die.
Final words:
Exotic animals are rare and non-native to human residents. They should be kept in the wild instead of in homes or artificial environments. Keeping them in a foreign place can harm them and even result in their death. People shouldn’t be harming wild animals just for their interests.
