Keeping wild animals as pets (pros and cons essays)

Can you imagine yourself keeping a wild animal as a pet? It sounds exciting but is it right to keep one at home?

There are certain advantages in keeping wild animals as pets. Firstly, if it is one of the endangered species, we can save them and help the species live longer. Secondly, we can learn a lot about them.

On the other hand, there are certain drawbacks in keeping wild animals as pets. First of all, our house is small for them. Also, when they grow up, they can be dangerous.


But, although this idea looks exciting, and many people want to have a wild animal as a pet, it isn’t a good idea. We don’t know how exactly to take care of them.

I hope that people won’t have wild animals as pets, because they should live in their natural habitats.
