The rarest pets

It is said that the pet is the keeper of the hearth, relieving the host's tension, pleasing him after a hard working day. In the hustle and bustle of everyday life people are moving away from the wild nature and it is already customary for us to see our dog on the threshold of a house or an arrogant cat climbing a table, for us they are pets, also fit in the gray city life.

This led to the fact that in our time the number of exotic lovers has increased dramatically. People want novelty, they start to start various exotic animals, in exchange for the usual ball, barsik, etc. But can a poisonous octopus rejoice at the owner or keep a pygmy hippopotamus?

A bit of history.

The desire to have an exotic "animal" first appeared in the City of the She-wolf, ancient Rome. It all began with the emperor Troyan, who ordered the centurions to look for exotic animals for high rewards. Then this fashion passed to other countries, for example, it was fashionable for the padishahs to tame hundreds of cheetahs for lush hunting with other rulers. They say that the Slavic ancestors also hunted with some kind of paradise, like cheetahs.

What do I need to know if I want to have an unusual pet?

When planting an exotic pet, one must remember how many wolves will not run to the forest anyway, so it's worth to be more careful, because a wild animal always remains wild and at any time it can awaken an animal instinct and then you will not get excited. Also it must be remembered that, after all, it is an animal that completely depends on you. Therefore, the term "pets" can sometimes be applied to a not quite domestic beast, because it depends on you, he is home-based and at the same time, never against eating a neighbor. So who are they, these rare pets?

What are the rarest pets?

You probably heard about the fact that people started to get reptiles, mollusks, amphibians, bats, primates, insects and predatory mammals. The most rare pets are usually poisonous animals, and predators, the aggregate of both these parameters, too, are usually the rarest and to keep the house of a predator, and even poisonous, far from every exotic fan, extreme and danger, in the second such a beast becomes potentially dangerous for society and the whole environment, because if your scorpion runs away, it can kill not one person. If to specify, the rarest pets are: Cheetah, panther, royal tarantula, all varieties of poisonous scorpions, Royal cobra, fugu fish. Do not try to domesticate the animal yourself. This should be done by specialists - the culprits, also do not contact smugglers. The police can at any time select the animal and send it to the zoo, or a deadly beast may be caught.

I want someone exotic, where do I start?

It is desirable to start with small reptiles, fish, birds. It is worth remembering that they need a special approach and self-feeding, do not rush to get a lion, a tiger or another wild predator, suddenly you will understand that this is not yours or you can not bear such responsibility. We advise you to start with jaguans, chameleons (they blend harmoniously against the background of birches =), so do not take it into your country, there was a sad experience when your neighbor's dog got bitten, and I did not have time to blink), also you can get piranhas, the rarest piranhas - with the Amazon, and more specifically moriche, but if you have no experience with piranhas, I advise you not to take it.

What do I need to have for the establishment of an "unusual" beast?

First of all, before buying an animal, you should read several books: about the habitat, about the habits, and then just start reading so let's say "guidelines for content." Then it is necessary, having consulted with a specialist, to choose a room, a room, a place for a pet and create the most favorable conditions for your future "friend". After you take the animal first, take it to the veterinarian (specialized, graduated from the veterinary institute, not in any way not agrarian) and lead from all possible diseases. Do not forget that different animals need to be fed at different times and different number of times so, for example, piranhas must be fed 3 times a day, and goldfish only 2 times and no more otherwise they die after 3 months. Also, when buying rodents, for example, it is necessary to take into account the thickness of the cage, for example, for a jerboa, the thickness of the rods must be at least 4 mm, and for the hunchbacked rodent not less than 6 mm. Before buying an animal, it is advisable to consult with specialists.

To get an exotic animal - a big responsibility to remember this, you are responsible not only to others, but also to animals, because it is like the good old "Tuzik" completely depends on you.
