should i get a tiger?

Answer 1

As long as it is trained and is in a cage :)

Answer 2

No, Tigers are great and magestic animals and should be free to roam. It would be unfair to the animal to have them in your apartment or home. The neighbors would be horrified and in many cities owning exotic animals are actually illegal.

Just think how big that litter box would have to be!

Because the tiger is a wild animal they can be unpredictable and may be forced to use you as a snack.

If you feel the overwhelming need to be with the large cats go try to volunteer at a local zoo.

Answer 3

OF CORSE NOT!
added to the points already said....
TIGERS ARE WILD ANIMALS! they want to be free! not couped up! not to mention that they are an endangered species!



they following is from http://www.worldwildlife.org/tigers/:
Recognized throughout the world for its ferocity and unmistakable beauty, the tiger faces an uncertain future. Due to increases in both natural and human threats, the wild tiger population suffered major losses during the 20th century and has become one of our most endangered species. By the 1950s, tigers living around the Caspian Sea were extinct; between 1937 and 1972 the population of tigers that once inhabited the islands of Bali and Java disappeared; the South China tiger, with at best 20 to 30 individuals, is nearly extinct in the wild.

India today has the largest number of tigers, numbering somewhere between 3,030 and 4,735 and it is estimated that only 5,100 to 7,500 individual tigers now remain in the entire world. These remaining tigers are threatened by many factors, including growing human populations, loss of habitat, illegal hunting of tigers and the species they hunt, and expanded trade in tiger parts used for traditional medicines.

Answer 4

Not unless you want to wake up in the night with your tiger's jaws around your throat and have your neighbors call the police 3 days later because they detect the smell of your rotting body parts scattered about next to a big tiger terd burried in your laundry pile.

No i thought not.

Answer 5

well most likely you wouldn't be able to get your hands on a tiger in the first place and if you were able to you would be spending in the upwards amount of 100000 or so and it would probably end up attacking you because most large cat species are hard to train. and they never really become domesticated animals. on top of that you probably wouldn't be able to afford for food. these animals don't eat kitty kibble your talking about 25 to 50lbs of fresh meat so... No I do not think that it would be a good Idea to get a Tiger.

Answer 6

Sure if you want to be its first meal. In most states it is against the law to own an exotic animal like a tiger.

Answer 9

CHARTER

We the non-human beings of Earth, ask that you treat us with dignity. Remember you are animals as we are, and our desires are no different that your own.

We seek life, happiness and freedom from fear just as you do.

Love and compassion for us relate directly to world peace.

We ask that you, no longer subject us to the pain and indignity of circus and other forms of human entertainment. There are so many other ways we can delight you.

We ask that you, re-evaluate interpretations of sacred texts, in which we are described as inferior and available for human exploitation. When you stray from sacred relationship with us you harm all life.

Use the goodness of your hearts and minds to find ways to be healthy without hurting us. Remember you do not need to harm us to be beautiful. You are beautiful as God made you.

Do not confine us to cages, pools, or other environments in which we cannot live according to our true nature. This keeps us from performing our divinely appointed tasks.

Encourage the beauty of your children's natural love of animals and know that your children can teach you.

Consider carefully before you destroy or pollute our natural homes, for your homes will suffer too.

Allow us the right to live, love and play, to express, and to be our unique "animal selves."

While you feel you must use our bodies for food remember that we become you. What we experience in life is enfolded into you.

If we must be put to death, please do so with mercy and compassion for we have shown your species the same as much as we are able.

Leave natural areas in every country in which those of us who are non-domesticated can live undisturbed in our natural habitats. We do important work in such places.

Recognize us as members of your communities and take responsibility for those of us who have formed bonds with and have become dependent on you. Set aside places in your towns and cities where we can live and prosper.

Help us not to over procreate. We cannot do this ourselves. It is part of your stewardship.

Remember that you are animals too and that our desires are not so different that yours.

Listen to all of the subtle ways we speak to you with silence and affection and reciprocate when we need your voice in order to be heard.


Remember we were the first 'people' on earth...here before you arrived.... We have a right to be here just as you have a right to be here.

We ask that you do your part to make the world a better place by promoting new attitudes towards us. We can then, impart our true gifts to you.

As you honor our requests, through conscious choice and love, we can in turn help you to awaken from your age, old story of pain, struggle and fear to create a new story based on honor, respect, and love.
