Ive wanted a white tiger ever since i could remember. I saw a special on siegfried and roy and they showed the white tigers coming and going in the house as they wished and they were just like big cats. They came in the house and jumped on the bed and rubbed against the guys like the little cats do. I think it would be awsome.

Some of you may think this is weird, but I have always had a love for tortoises and turtles, so I would probably own just a bunch of them! :)

I think that I would probably focus on actual property,if I were dreaming about owning exotics. I would love to find a special place that had a lot of acreage,and a huge pond,that would attract all sorts of wildlife.That way,I could not only have the pleasure of watching them,but enjoy it even more because they were in their own environment.

I like many would like a lion etc. However I would love to own a dolphin or seal. I was blessed to locate a pod or wild while jet sking. They were so sweet, gentle and smart. I would love to study them or a seal as these are some of our wildlife that seem so smart but rarely do we have a change to view them due to their habitat. Its amazing to watch their logic when doing something for food etc. Especially they way they use their bodies to assist them in opening shells for food. Not only is the beauty of these creatures amazing but the mind inside their heads totally intriques me.

Honestly, none! I wouldn't take the wild away from the animal - if that animal had the chance to grow up in its natural habitat, I would never, ever take that from it. I don't believe any exotic animal should be kept as a pet, because no matter how natural a habitat you might provide, or how much money/time you have to care for it, that will never make up for the loss of its life in the wild. If I could, I would stop all breeding of exotics for the pet trade as it is, foxes, tigers, parrots and wolves are wild animals and need to be kept so.

There are so many amazing wild animals that it's hard to pick even just a few. I've always loved cheetah's though. I'd also love a fox, coyote or perhaps even an opossum. Opossums seem so sweet (I had one crawl into my lap once at a nature preserve/rescue). So many people don't appreciate them because they think they're ugly. I think they're lovely.

I would want ducks because they are such pretty birds. I'd like to have a pond and some acres for them to play before getting any ducks, so I have no ducks. I'm thinking about getting a Beta fish. I've had Beta's in the past and I like that kind of fish because they are so pretty. I don't like the tiny Beta tanks they sell at the pet store for them; I want them to have room to swim in a larger container.
