Hello, all mystery analyzing experts! There is an interesting question that “Do you have any pets in your home?”.
Is it a little dog, a long-haired cat, or a hamster? But many people get bored with those adorable pets and look for crazy pets! Waking up with giant pythons or playing with the tigers.
Things that seem only for zoo staff have become familiar to many people! Come on, let’s come with The 10 craziest pets of humans
Number 10: Lion
Owning a lion as a pet in the house is a trend of showing off Dubai’s wealth. Perhaps the lion is known as the lord of the forest, so taming this huge ferocious animal is considered a testament to power, money, and strength.
It is astonishing that the animal that is only seen on the animal channel suddenly walks on the road, attends events and even shares a car with the owner.
Not only Dubai, but many Pakistani families also reserve a place in the house for this wild animal and are extremely confident that they will not harm them. This guy also built a room with a large bed for his pet.
Number 9: Python
An extremely strange but increasingly popular pet is the python. Many people find it extremely interesting to wrap this large animal around the body like a scarf or a piece of jewelry.
But not everyone can stick with this pet for long. Although gentle, non-toxic, python is still a wild species with hideous shapes.
Many pythons have grown too fast, reaching nearly a dozen meters in just a few years, making their owners terrified about being swallowed.
For example, in 2017, a Chinese man presented his Burmese golden python to the zoo. The animal was then 4-5m long and weighed 80 kg.
If fully developed, it could even be longer than 7m and weigh up to 100 kg.
Number 8: Crocodile
Despite being a dangerous animal with high attack power, crocodiles are still welcomed like a high-class pet to show off money and power.
But this animal is difficult to tame, so many people accept to build a lake with high fences to ensure safety and just watch it from a distance.
Yet, there is a man in Thailand who has kept a crocodile in his house for 2 decades! This man said that his crocodile is very docile and never harms anyone.
This man is not the only one in the world to keep crocodiles as pets. Before that, an Indonesian family also lived with a gentle 200kg crocodile for 20 years.
Number 7: Bear
Can you imagine that one day you woke up and next to you was a big bear? Yet, many people have gotten used to this when deciding to keep bears as pets in the house.
Despite their bulky bodies and powerful pairs of claws, owners thought the bears were very gentle when living with them. The most famous pet of this species is probably the Stepan bear.
He has lived with a couple of Yuri and Svetlana Panteleenko in Moscow, Russia since the age of 3 months. 24 years later, Stepan weighs 360 kg.
Stepan and his owners had a strong, close relationship. They treat Stepan like a family child and eat together every day. This 24-year story is even made into a documentary.
Perhaps, Russia is a paradise country with bears, because, besides Stepan, the press has reported that a 250kg bear was also raised by a Russian pilot.
Number 6: Jaguar
Known as the fastest species on the planet, jaguars become the fear of many preys when hunted. But these animals sometimes lie quietly obediently in wealthy families, especially Dubai.
Humaid AlBuQaish is a famous rich man in the United Arab Emirates. Besides branded items, supercars, this person is also famous for owning a series of pets such as lions, tigers, jaguars, etc.
This man often takes photos with his panthers and posts them on social networks. He thought that they were all well-tamed, so they wouldn’t pose any danger. But as an agile species, jaguars are not suitable for pets.
Number 5: Giant spider
One of the trends that attracts young people is raising the poisonous South American Tarantula spider.
An adult Tarantula spider with the largest in nature ever recorded can weigh 120 grams with 30cm long legs.
Although this spider is advertised as being quite gentle and never bites humans, many experts warn that the venom of this spider can be dangerous to human health.
Some species in nature even have been recorded to have a deadly venom like a cobra. In addition, with impressive shape and “terrible” size, this spider can disrupt the surrounding environment if it gets out.
However, many people still consider the Tarantula spider as a trendy hobby and constantly keep it as a pet.
Number 4: Tiger
Tigers, although they were wild animals, after being domesticated, can obey their owners and are like giant cats.
You may not believe your eyes when you see the mighty tigers of the forest lie obediently in the leash without any reaction despite caressing.
But few know that behind that wisdom can be a tragedy. These wild animals are often poached and smuggled into the country.
They are mistreated, shackled in an inappropriate cage before finding a new “house” for themselves.
According to the Wildlife Trafficking Tracking Network, this illegal wildlife trade is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Baby tigers is sold for about $3,000 at the black market.
Number 3: Orangutan
You may think that raising a small monkey in your house is already “crazy”, but many people want to own an orangutan as a pet.
This animal is considered to be the smartest and closest to humans among primates. They can handle and use many objects.
Perhaps because of that, many people have found ways to catch them back even though this is an illegal act.
In 2019, a Russian tourist on a trip from Indonesia “bravely” drugged an about 2-year-old orangutan and put it in a backpack to bring home.
Luckily, he was detained at Denpasar airport when he tried to pass through security. The 27-year-old guy insisted that this is a gift from a friend.
This person bought an orangutan for $3,000 from a market in Java, Indonesia. And now is the most exciting part of the video, which is explaining the most controversial photo.
A man is pulling a hyena. This is a 3D painting by Sergio Odeith, a 43-year-old Portuguese graffiti artist. This hyena is what I am about to introduce now.
Number 2: Hyena
Hyenas have strong teeth that can tear hard and tough objects. The two previous limbs of this species are long and can control an ordinary person.
But many people in Africa have a hobby to keep this wild species. Photographer Pieter was surprised to see strange photos of Africans raising hyenas and taking care of them like family members.
He was quickly mesmerized and immediately set out to work in Nigeria. According to this photographer, the majority of people raise these pets to look after their homes, while others serve their livelihoods such as circus and trade-offs.
A strange thing is that the people here, including babies, have the ability to tame this wild animal. Everyone can approach, cuddle and play with them.
Number 1: Poisonous snake
A water snake seems harmless, so keeping it as a pet is no problem. But, the story is completely different if you have a poisonous snake inside your house!
But this is normal for many people, maybe because they think raising a dangerous animal is to show off. But raising such a dangerous animal in your home is not against the law.
Bailey, a teenager in the US state of Florida, met troubles when raising 10 poisonous snakes as pets. The police found snakes in this guy’s closet.
All the 10 snakes have venom including 9 rattlesnakes and 1 cobra. Police investigated the illegal snakes raising after people reported Bailey posing with snakes and posting them on social media.
But 10 snakes is nothing when you know that there is a whole Thailand village raising hundreds of poisonous snakes. Almost each of the 140 families in Ban Kok Sa-nga has at least one snake kept in a wooden box as a pet.
Snakes are very diverse, from giant cobra to less dangerous species like python. It is true that nothing is impossible in this life.
