Suggested by Will Leonard Owning a pet has obvious benefits: they help reduce stress, they act as our protectors both in our personal home space and public places, they help those of us with disabilities both physically and emotionally, and so much more. The relationship between a pet and its owner is truly unique. However, the pets that come to mind are usually cute, cuddly, domesticated creatures such as dogs, cats, ferrets, etc. But what if we were to tell you that a unique group of people find pet companionship within a far more dangerous group of wild animals? And what if we were to tell you that owning such wild animals and keeping them as pets is actually legal? Well it's true. Animals such as tigers, wolves, bears, and even alligators have served as pets in the most startling of relationships between humans and beasts even though such proximity carries with it a very real and present danger. After all, some of these animals are responsible for countless of human deaths in the wild. Why would anyone want to put themselves in such a dangerous situation and why is this legal?
