there are only 3900 tigers in the wild
people should be able to have exotic animals as pets because they can bring people happiness, the animals get somewhere nice to live, and they need to be cared for
the animals get somewhere nice to live
they bring happiness
when you are sad they can comfort you
you will not be as loney with one of them
they do funny and cute things that make you smile
they will have warmth in the cold
they will have a comfortable place to sleep
the animals will be fed proper meals daily
the animals need to be cared about
animals want attention
animals want to play with you
when you show affection to them they show affection back
