Is it wrong to keep exotics as pets?
I have been thinking about this a lot and just can't come to an answer. Is it wrong to keep exotic animals as pets, given it is legal in your state or country? Seeing as at one point they were taken from the wild, require a lot of care above and beyond what a cat or dog would require, and it might not be easy to find them quality pet care, are they a bad choice?

It also seems like some exotics don't even have the personality to be pets. Our guinea pigs are very easy going, but I have heard lots of comments that rabbits, on the other hand, don't always have the best traits to be kept as pets and can be mean. I might be mean too if I had these big legs for jumping and had to wait until my owner came home from work to give me a little exercise.

I don't know, thoughts?
