Anyone else have or spend a lot of time with exotic animals?

I grew up around lynx and cougars. The lynx were actually house cats. 2 cougars caged. A small Wolf pack caged and even a black bear. Anyone else?

We went on vacation and the place we stayed at had peacocks, zebras, buffalo, emus, monkeys, lemurs, mountain lions, a cerval, and a tiger, all fat and mellow. Very cool.

It was a bed and breakfast place that had an exotic game license

There were other critters as well, it was pretty neat to walk around

I raised a morelets crocodile until he was around 3' and then he was sent to a guy in south FL. I've also been around basically every venomous snake you can think of. I helped some friends for awhile who imported venomous snakes for zoos and what not so I have seen my fare share of things.

I used to have a hawk that I rescued from some cock fighters.

Haha it was just a daily thing for me so I don't have much of anything. The only pictures I have are of a big Eastern Diamondback and a Sri Lanka Palm Viper (bottom right corner of the picture). I do have a photo of a 8' black mamba I worked around for 2 years but I would have to take a picture of a picture. haha will look a little cheesy. 200569_1933792670607_833449_n.jpg 1916423_1072830800092_1822791_n.jpg
