Koalas are cute, they stink a bit and need blue gum or eucalyptus leaves, I think that last year they were running around 3 grand each for legal captive bred. black bear cubs are available at around a grand this year and grow to around 300lbs max in four years, high maintainence but really cool, I would not trust them but then I'm a pussy.
 
Love critters, kept some, caught some ate some, Helped some people who had way to much money find unusual pets and got paid for it, habit sort of stuck.
 
Some kind of large intelligent bird is my choice but only if I can provide it with an enormous place to roam. I don't like seeing birds in cages. I don't like most dogs but would love a wolfor coyote. A bobcat or similer species would be awsome...one heck of a lap cat. I would also liketo own an octopus (its not a fish so don't get on my case).
 
Don't know s--t about birds, they scare me. Coyotes make lousy pets if you want a dog, they act like cats and tend to nip and run off when they get around a year old,( I am not the only one who has tried this) Bobcats make great pets if you don't mind bleeding every once in a while but they are one person pets and not to be trusted with other pets or children ( much like a cougar or caracal.) I haven't seen any for sale legally for years. Redtailfool, lions and bengal usually require a permit but it is easy to get, kits run around 3-5 thousand and there are several dozen suppliers in the states, just look up catteries- exotic to find them. Albinos cost more and tend to have weak immune systems and be partially blind. The strains here in the states are mainly related and smaller than their wild cousins. They will eat around 10% of their weight per week once adults so that works out to 10-15 lbs a day of meat and the same of cat food.
 
Good info guppy my man. Its just a thought though .Till i get a mansion like Tony Montanas in scarface, i wont even think of having one =)
