I have an exotic bird, a senegal parrot named Loki. I think all pets are cool, but many exotics should not be pets. Monkeys, for instance. They can be dangerous, and some people have all their teeth pulled out and sometimes cut off the monkey's fingertips to make the monkey safer to have, but that is deplorable and cruel to me. Venomous snakes are also not a good idea. Tigers, alligators and certain lizards are also not meant to be pets.
