Welfare of animals: Each organization
cares for the welfare and health of the animal that is being owned. Sometimes, however, the health of the animal
suffers because there is not a large source of veterinarians that are equipped
to handle certain exotic animals. To
compromise, those who own exotic animals need to find a qualified veterinarian beforehand
and make sure to follow the guidelines they put out regarding the animal. This way those who have an exotic pet can
properly care for it, and those who are against the ownership can at least have
peace of mind that the animal is being cared for.
Safety: Safety is a big issue for those
who are against owning an exotic animal.
Those who do own them claim they are very safe, which may not be true
100% of the time. There are more attacks
caused by exotic animals than caused by domesticated animals every year. The only compromise to this issue is to ban
ownership of known dangerous exotic animals.
There are plenty of exotic animals that are not dangerous and can
provide happiness to their owners.
Although those people who own large cats and other dangerous animals will
not be happy, there is no equal compromise for this issue.
Fairness: There are issues regarding the fairness of
laws concerning exotic animals from those who are for the ownership of
them. They don’t think it is the
governments place to tell someone what type of animal they can and can’t
have. Those organizations that are
against the ownership of exotic animals are for these laws. A compromise for this issue would be to
re-evaluate these laws and possibly change any that are overstepping the
boundaries of what the government should be able to control or not.
