Or "don't shit where you eat" 😂

animals live by instinct and that is why they usually do not attack the hands that feed them, unless they have bad mood swings or during mating seasons when they are more aggressive than usual. ❤😊

That makes me very glad nicole

Touch grass

does that even need said? those that do own said exotic animals rescued and raised then and releasing them in wild or locking them in a zoo would be far worse than living with humans.

An animal to be released into the wild, has to be taught how to hunt/forage or it will starve. Birds and pets will not make it. When you are out in the woods, and find a wild young animal, it's hard to make up your mind, if save it or its Mom might be close but unseen. Then you got the issue with the law/restrictions./neighbors. Not so simple @@viperdemonz-jenkins

They are anti-law to have - to places that the law works.

It's very illegal they're called wild for a reason they're not cats and dogs fuck you animal lovers are braindead I can't believe I'm siding with Peta.

Problem is, many of these people just want an exotic pet to show off or feel special. They don't do fill research into the animal's needs or just provide a bare minimum. Exotic pets may be taken from the wild as babies or bred in appalling conditions by people cashing in on the trend for fancy pets. Wild populations can be damaged this way by the demand for pets. Then when the novelty wears off, the pet gets too big/messy/expensive, they end up neglected or dumped.

Lol true

fine safely swim with.

They are just too dangerous to keep as pets.

@@lisabaltzer4190it’s also incredibly cruel, unless the animal can’t be returned to the wild.

Max in the first clip cannot be returned. Multiple reasons. Health being biggest one. Nor can Messi for same. You also run risk of releasing pathogens wild have not been exposed to

So are humans......

Domestication is always a possibility, and in some cases it's necessary in order for a species to survive. Not every animal has to stay wild.

You cannot own a kiwi… you can own a kiwi with the right licence. We’ll said! 🙄

Well said!

No wild animals especially endangered species and more intelligent should be pets!. Sanctuaries (and not all of those are good) and proper accredited zoos aquariums should be the only places.

Freda Childress, my God, that means the poor things can't even eat? How long can they live like that? (And it must be a pretty miserable existence! 😞 )

I kind of agree with you for the most part!! The only problem I have is that humans are overpopulating the world and taking over all these special and endangered animals habitats. ... Not fair!!!! So, if we all are going to have to live together in harmony then we all need to get along. There are some animals that should be domesticated and some that are already. If some are going to be domesticated then there needs to be strict regulations and support for animal rights whether they are wild or domestic!!! People need to educate themselves before adopting ANY animals. If you are planning on having a human baby, hopefully you would educate yourself, right?? I think this subject "should be all without saying" by now!!

Took the words out of my mouth!

Your housecat's ancestors were once those wild animals our ancestors kept from their natural needs tj. Stop being a totalitarian and let people do as they wish so long as the animal and community it resides in needs' are met. If anything with more modernization happening every day we can ensure that some exotic animals are kept in private hands rather than go extinct, aswell as maybe in 1000 years people will have an awesome selection of domesticated animals to choose as their companions.

You're proving your ignorance by saying this. Take for example, a pet cougar that was raised by people since it was young. What is the poor thing going to do when it suddenly gets released to the wild? It'll die if it's released back to the wild. And you can clearly see that all of these animals were happy and healthy.

@@AvengedPanzer And they showed cougar Messi other cougars in a sanctuary and he was like: "Yea, whatever, can we go home now?" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h8iieqmGz7LSZac.html

👍👍👏👏👏 das ist auch meine Meinung.

Sometimes they can't be released after being rescued, etc..

Ownership of animals is our right. They aren't people, but we can certainly enjoy living around them and we can provide them with an easy life.

Coconut crabs are the largest land invertebrate. If you pass out on a beach, they might think you’re food, or at least your cat.

it sure takes a very unusual person to sleep in the same house w some of those species...The Level of food aggression that the puma had toward the owner was a very bad sign They are imposing human behavior rules on a confined preditor who acts like a head of pride- never a good ending That growling and biting the owner for meat is a no-no even for a dog !!

@@OlgaThe1 Agree, I wouldn't describe a lot of the animals on this video as `house pets'😟

..there good pets they have them in Samoa or Fiji as casual pets like cats dogs

I once had a Blue Crab pinch through my finger nail !

If they're de-skunked, they make good pets, with a sweet disposition.

​@@Gertyutz or maybe just let them be wild animals and not keep them as pets

correction some of these were in zoos and in terrible shape about to get euthanized ppl stepped up and gave them a second life otherwise they would of been dead

They aren't trophies either.

@@KLSMTL there was a case with 2 baby tigers where a guy was able to buy only 1 cuz the owner of a zoo refuse to sell the other one for lower and the tiger just died due to conditions...

@@TheRifild @I_Am_Puma is such a case , the puma shown in this very video . @Luna_the_pantera is an other @I_Am_Cheeta is an other

@K Liss Genuinely don't think people should take over at all. Let nature takes it's course. Don't get me wrong, I love animals...but it's not our place. I'd say get rid of the root of the problem... but if that were the case we all should be gone 😂

Yep

It is. The channel is from australia but fails to identify the Australian animals.🤦‍♂️

Hmmm, well, snakes are not meant to be kept in domestic settings and they definitely don't have the ability to feel love. They are natural predators and will be the same.

I hope you won't. You wouldn't have patience to deal with all of them. It'd be a 5 minute thing and you'd already be tired of it. Finger monkeys are not as you think they are.

@@teacherjay9523 7 months later, I now have 13 of them. 💚 I love them so much, they are like the children I never have. I'm currently training them to perform as a mini circus for film production.

@@CloudSpirals I'd like to see pictures of them. Maybe having them in my online classes for my ESL students, what do you think?

@@teacherjay9523 I don't think you'd want pictures anymore. Two of them now have no hair and are receiving chemotherapy for bowel cancer. The rest have the mange and have turned violent against each other. They foam at the mouth and are scared of water for some reason. I'm moving on and now have some Australian Sugar Gliders coming in the mail.

​@@CloudSpiralsyour underated and unappreciated 😂

Wird wohl an deren narzisstischen Statussymbol liegen etwas zu haben, was andere nicht haben. 🤡 Soetwas gehört bestraft.

Ok, thank you.

I want a tiger.

@@SuperEman500 omg, why is that?

I really want a cat that isn’t small so like the clouded leopard or something. Pet animals are good enough but some people just like other types of animals

dont confuze your cougar with Messi @I_Am_Puma lol

Would you prefer to have met white cougars in your area?

Yeah great pets until they want to get wild

Their sounds aren't what people think they are

Messi is not fit. A third smaller than a normal healthy and has serious health issues

Lots of people annually get mauled and killed ie by their dogs and cattle; keeping domesticated animals isn't exactly safe either.

Cougar Messi is very docile and went to public dog school. Was on a speed boat, inside a public cinema as VIP, in a tv studio and children did pet him. He also didn't need sedation when the public vet made an x ray or ultra sonic on him. He sometimes comes to sleep in the bed with them: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ndmGir1y3b6-kZc.html
