Every time I’m on the internet, I always see the cutest videos of wild animals acting like domesticated pets. I love animals so much, especially most mammals that live in the woods or forests. I wish I could raise a tiger or a bear. It would be so cool to have an unusual animal as a pet. I’ve thought about it for a while, and I have created a list of my top five favorite animals that I wish I could own as a pet.
- Red Panda
Ever since I learned about them in fifth grade, I have been obsessed with them. Red Pandas are the cutest animals ever. They are so tiny, and they just look so soft and cuddly. When I found out they were endangered, I was so sad. It is so depressing that they are hunted after. They are so adorable, and I would love to have one running around my house.
- Penguin
Penguins are the silliest creatures I’ve ever looked at. The way they waddle around is so funny, and I love watching videos of them sliding around in the snow. They amaze me, and the movie Happy Feet made me love penguins so much. Having a little penguin would be the dream; however, I could never live in such cold climates.
- Bat
I love bats with my whole heart. They remind me of cats that can fly, and having one would be amazing. Most people hate it when bats end up in their attic, but personally, I would love that. I would feel like a true vampire if I could own a bat. I see so many cute videos of them flying around, and they fill me up with so much joy. I wish they were not treated as pests, because I would pay millions to keep a bat in my house.
- Deer
Deers are one of the friendliest animals ever. They are so silly when they aren’t running away from you. I love the fact that they sometimes chill in my backyard. I am so happy that most people let them roam around in our neighborhoods. Deers are so fun to be around, and I wish they were not so scared of humans to the point where they run away if you get too close. I hope in the future I can have a little deer family consistently in my backyard.
Before we get to the number one spot, I would like to give some honorable mentions. Owls, raccoons, any wild birds, and honestly, any animal ever all crossed my mind while I was making this list. I love all animals so much, and I wish I could have them all as pets. I would thrive on Noah’s Ark.
- Fox
Foxes are my favorite animals of all time. They are so visually appealing to look at. I also love how they act like cats. I see so many videos of them getting pets, and they are so adorable! Working in a fox sanctuary is my dream. One time I saw a fox and a cat fighting in my neighborhood, and that has been a core memory for me ever since. I want a fox as a pet so bad.
In conclusion, I love all animals, and they should all live in my house.
