Mak / Croatia
speaker No, I would like to have, you know, pets, like dogs ... well, yeah, dogs. No, not cats. Dogs, because they're just I think friendlier, and I'm used to them since I have two dogs, and they call them German Schnauzers.
 
Sarah / England
speaker I don't know if you count it as exotic 1, but I've always wanted a chameleon 2. I love the way that they walk. They're quite a funny pet and they seem to have a of character as an animal, so I would love to have a chameleon.
 
Paul / England 
speaker If I was to have an exotic pet, I would choose a nightingale, so in the evenings, this bird would sing its tune 3. I think it would be very nice to have such a bird, but I would be very reluctant to keep the bird in a cage, so perhaps I would just allow it to come and go as it pleased.
 
Kat / Germany
speaker I don't think I'd like to have an exotic pet. When I think about exotic pets, I think of spiders and snakes and iguanas 4, and I don't really like any of those. They scare me, so I don't think I want an exotic pet.
 
Warren / Canada 
speaker I don't think I would like to have an exotic pet. I love animals and I'm definitely fascinated 5 in animals from around the world, but I don't think it would be fair for me to have one as a pet. For one, I don't know how to take care of it properly. And I think they should be in the wild, and if it's exotic, that means this is not the natural environment for them.
 
Adria / United States 
speaker That's kind of a difficult question also because I feel like maybe it's not proper to have a pet that you've pulled from the wild. But I really do like birds, and I would probably have a bird. I don't know if you consider a parakeet an exotic pet, but I have had two parakeets when I was a child.
