27. Cute, but they bite!
I've visited a big cat sanctuary down here in Florida several times. They have over 250 big cats-tigers, lions, leopards, lynx, etc. When asked what animal has caused the most injuries to volunteers, the answer is always "the lemurs"! Who knew?

13. Oh my goodness! Is that real?
Looks like the cutest plush pet I ever saw!

I was going to say Veiltail goldfish. I've wanted one since I was a kid, but it probably wouldn't be a good idea, since I have a cat.

39. In fact, their mouths are so dirty from eating rotten corpses
that their bite is usually fatal. The Komodo dragon's mouth is truly one of the most foul in nature.
I guess that happens when you survive on carrion like vultures or hyenas

Savannah cats:



Maned wolves are also pretty amazing:





But they are rather large:


A friend of mine has pet meerkats, and they have lots of personality (but do require a lot of care). I guess for now my cat Oberon will have to be 'wild" enough for me:

46. I think they're beautiful
I love red foxes, and maned wolves are like giant red foxes on stilts!(They eat small prey in grasslands in Central America-thus the long legs).

You CAN get a brother of his that looks almost just like him here: www.heartshaven.net

You'd have to like GIANT cats, though. Maine Coons are enormous, and they can bruise you fairly well when they leap into your lap. Here's a photo of the still growing Oberon (it takes at least four years for them to grow to their full size-Obie is almost two) next to a full grown Puck. Puck is an average to slightly large cat.



Here's their Catster pages for more pics:
Oberon:

Puck:
http://www.catster.com/?100222

On edit: Oberon's younger brother Hobson is available for adoption (same parents, different litter). His face is almost identical to Oberon's, but he's brown instead of silver. I've met him; he's gorgeous and as sweet as can be (still growing, too). Go to the Heart's Haven link above for more info if you're interested

49. I have 3 coons already - tho not pure
and two others. If I brought another cat into the house my husband would kill me. We also have 3 or 4 ferals we feed outside. LOL I feel like Bertha V.

51. Bernese Mountain Dog


But, there are so many dogs out there who need to be rescued, that I would not purchase a purebred dog from a breeder. So, unless I find a Berner that I fall in love with at a rescue, I'll probably never have one. Oh well, I can just look at the pretty pictures of them...:-)
