So would you favor a law outlawing wild pets, Sallow? I keep hoping a Libertarian will post to this thread.
All y'all are so reasonable about this......where's Quantum Windbag? I bet he'd object.

He's my good buddy, syrenn...but he's radical, that's for sure. Plus he's wicked fun to argue with.
I don't think it's a mental illness so much as increasing alienation within the human species as the result of encroaching technology and the extreme complications of an increasingly bureaucratic social order. Humans are turning to these wild creatures for the kind of trust and honest love which they cannot experience with other humans.What do you say? Is this a symptom of a new mental illnesses? Should wild animal ownership by private persons be illegal?

You forgot to mention that I am always right.
I was bitten, too, by a spider monkey. But it was my own fault. Keeping those creatures in cages is simply cruel but I was too young and stupid to realize that at the time. I stuck my finger in the cage and the little bugger let me know how he felt about humans.i have been bitten by a monkey ...a small one...but it inflicted a lot of harm in a little time...a friend of mine was attacked by a chimp.....bad bite to the hand...another friend worked with chimps in florida and has the scars to prove it...
Do you think they would do damage to you, or just to the furniture?i love my cats...but they are small and cannot do much damage...if they were large they would.
So are humans. The strongest.bears are strong predators...simple as that...

We have one of the most active Humane Societies in the nation here in Ohio. A proposed bill the OHS drafted has been tendered to the governor following the mauling death of a local man, Brent Kandra, by a pet bear. Brent Kandra was on Mazzola's property doing work when he was killed. Mazzola had previously been stripped of his Federal license to exhibit wild animals and had a history of legal problems concerning his animals or attempts to acquire more. Truely, a horrifying case.

There are so many instances of such deaths (normally though, it is the animal's owner who is killed, not a guest) that the Animal Planet Channel has built a reality tv show on the topic called "Fatal Attractions".
Note: this video is very disturbing.

The show is so graphic a paper no less jaded than the NY Post called it "extreme". The Animal Planet Channel defended the show, claiming the number of people who own venomous snakes, constrictors, big cats and chimps or apes, etc. has exploded in the past 20 years and the trend shows no sign of slowing. APC says the purpose of the show is to explore the motives people have for owning such animals as pets.
