Are you intrigued by the idea of owning an exotic animal that will turn heads wherever it goes? From reptiles to birds to marsupials, there's no limit to the possibilities! Owning an exotic pet can bring with it a certain level of responsibility, but if done right—through careful research and responsible behavior—these animals can be amazing companions. In this blog post, we're exploring 15 different types of exotic animals you might consider as a pet.

1. Moose

One user posted, “A moose. I've loved them since childhood and have even gone to Yellowstone multiple times to see them. And I would decorate his antlers for each season and holiday. His name would be Teddy. And I would love him.”

2. Silverback Gorilla

“IF it's not going to attack me, a Silverback Gorilla. That should finally end those door-to-door salespeople,” one user shared. 

3. Large Jungle Cat

One Redditor posted, “A large jungle cat of some variety. But even if it wouldn't attack me, I'm not sure I'd want to do that to a wild animal. My backup would be a trash panda. They aren't really wild animals exactly, and they're so damn cute.”

8. Lion

One commenter said, “Lion so that I can ride it. That would be fun.”

9. Dragon

“A dragon. I'd name it Redrockegon.”, a user posted.

11. Octopus

“Octopus,” one Redditor posted.
