Exotic Animal Owners Under Attack

AnimaMedia, either post facts from personal experience, or stop this propaganda hearsay here, OK?

AnimalMedia, kids are more expensive to take care of than any animal out there. Should we ban humans according to your faulty logic?

I am not going to argue with people owning exotic pets as you are extremely biased. I have stated facts, you can choose to believe them or not. I have hours of footage proving myself true. As long as I know what I say is fact, I don't care if you don't agree. You can't argue with footage.

AnimalMedia, people owning exotic pets are NOT biased, we have hands on experience, aka facts, as opposed to your hearsay an dlack of any real life experience. But I agree with you that you should stop arguing, feel free to go away now.

I will go away. I do not like talking to ignorant people. YOU may think you take good care of your exotic pets, but you can't be as ignorant as to think that everyone else does.

I must chime in here. AnimalMedia - regardless of the costs to buy, feed and maintain these animals, if I can afford the bills and can keep my animals happy, I should be allowed to keep whatever pets I desire. I only have domestic cats currently, but should I desire an exotic pet, I want the freedom the Constitution and Bill of Rights provides.

So should laws only protect the freedoms of people? Don't animals have any rights to happiness? Most of the exotic pet trad e is illegal, so the constitution doesn't even apply if you really think about it. Even in states banning them, there are still many exotic pet owners. In reality, the law doesn't do much to prevent it, and if it did, it wouldn't change all that much. Only 10% of big cats as pets were purchased legally.

AnimalMedia, I never heard or saw any proof that only 10 % of exotic cats were purchased legally; which magic hat did you take that number from? In any case, keep digging your own hole...you are doing a great job showing your ignorance of facts and science.

That is a real statistic, not a magic number. Illegal purchasing of exotic animals is a 6 billion dollar industry.

AnimalMedia, that illegal industry 6 billion dollar figure, it it USA or worldwide? Which species are included? Is it live aniamls or also parts? Is it the cost of raw product or finsihed product derived from aniaml parts?What is the source of that figure?
