I'm not talking about the usual everday exotic pets like snakes, turtles, ferrets, etc.. I'm talking about the ownership of tigers, fennec foxes, jaguars, sevrals, monkies and lynx's. (etc)
I've been reading sites about a few of them, (mostly because I've been a big cat fancier all my life), and owning them doesn't sound too bad to me, if done responsibly. Personally, I won't own one in the near future, as I know I won't be able to provide the proper meals and caring for them as babies as youre supposed to to help tame them. Of course, it will never be as tame as say, a dog. Since they have been domesticated for thousands of years. Then, even when a tiger hits the age of 2 or 3, you probably won't be allowed to enter his cage safely.
So, my opinion is pretty simple on the subject. I think you should be allowed ownership of any animal, if you can do it right and give them what they need, and if you have the correct schooling. e.g, be a professional. Also, some animals chance of survival depend on being raised and bred in captivity.
What do you think of exotic pet/captive wildlife ownership?
