If you are also a fan of exotic animals and all the extraordinary, below, you have the opportunity to get acquainted with the five most expensive pets in the world.
Fifth place
Unusual, in comparison with its relatives, the bird - Hyacinth macaw is in this top in honorable fifth place. Such a handsome man lives in the forests of the tropics in South America. This is the largest parrot in the world that can hide remarkably thanks to its color. This beautiful feathered grows up to a meter in length and has a life expectancy of over thirty years. And the record was the domestic parrot, which lived as long as 54 full years. It is the largest flying bird in the world..
In addition to their lifespan, hyacinth parrots have a very highly developed intellect. They get along well with a person and quickly learn everything new. But, despite all its advantages, this bird is rather capricious in home maintenance. And it requires special care, special food and a special large cage. An ordinary cage will not work for the reason that a parrot will either break it or take it apart,while you are away from home. The cost of such an interesting friend is about 12 thousand dollars.
Tiger python albino - fourth place
The fourth line was attached to a beautiful and unusual reptile - Tiger albino python. Despite the fact that many people are afraid of snakes, by nature, these creatures are increasingly found in homes as pets. Such a rare python is a real pride for its owner, because it costs about 15 thousand dollars. This snake can reach a length of up to eight meters. But, she is absolutely calm and has an easygoing character. So it does not pose any danger to humans.
There is such a beast of mice, and when rabbits or rats grow up. You can feed an adult once every 1-2 months. And the life span of such an animal reaches twenty-odd years. An ideal pet for those who do not have much time to care for animals. But, for the maintenance of such a snake, a large terrarium with backlights and heating, as well as a humidification system, is required. If you equip the python with conditions close to its natural living conditions, it will live happily ever after, delighting the owners and their guests.
Chimpanzee - third place
The creature that has long been popular with people and aroused their interest completes the three leaders. Indeed, Chimpanzees have much in common with humans. Because of their bright mind and perky behavior, chimpanzees became the favorites of children and the heroes of many cartoons. Keeping such a pet is not the easiest, but it is very exciting.
Having got a chimpanzee, you definitely won’t be bored. Such an animal in the house is the same as several small restless children. Although, if the house already has children, then they should like such a new friend. They will all frolic and run. In the wild, these primates travel fifty kilometers a day, on average. And they spend the night where they have to, but for sleep they make a nest for themselves in the trees from branches, foliage and grass. The cost of such a pet will be 65 thousand dollars and more, depending on the sex and age of the animal.
White tiger - second place
The second place was assigned to the White Tiger, which is very rare, both in homes and in the wild. Indeed, the chance of having such an animal is 1 in 10 thousand cases. And given that Bengal tigers are an endangered species, the birth of their albino baby is almost a miracle. Due to weak immunity and color characteristics, in nature, such babies usually die. And when maintaining the house, they require increased attention and special care.
Now in the world there are a little more than a hundred white tigers and almost one hundred percent of them live in zoos and human homes. The cost of such an exclusive pet is approximately 140 thousand dollars.
The most expensive pet
And, the first place among the most expensive pets is Grumpy Cat (moody cat), which is the only one in the world. This cat is unique and its owners are not going to sell it for any money, so this animal is priceless.His name is Tardar Sauce, he was born in 2012 with a sick kitten. They could go out, but he remained special. His innate features do not prevent him from living a full life. And the owners love Tardar as he is.
Over its short life, the cat has already managed to become popular. He even brings income to his masters. His photo is posted on the Internet, with his image released t-shirts and souvenirs. And he just became the most popular meme on the Internet since his birth and is considered to this day.
On the other hand, from the point of view of the market, price is the value of the last transaction. In this case, there is no transaction value, which means that there is no price either. Therefore, it is difficult to say that this is the most expensive pet, but certainly very rare.
Before you get yourself an expensive, exotic pet, you should think a hundred times and still get a familiar cat or dog. Pets are a huge responsibility, do not neglect it.
