Tigers are surprisingly cheap to buy as pets. People in the United States can buy a captive-born tiger for $900 to $2500. Typically, humans buy a female tigress because males tend to be more aggressive, territorial, and unpredictable in their behavior. This leads to questionable behavior regarding the treatment of male tigers born to a breeder. Despite this relatively cheap initial purchase price of a tiger, the cost of keeping and caring for a wild tiger is extremely high. An adult tiger needs about 6,000 kilocalories of food per day, or about 15 pounds of meat! However, in the wild, tigers consume a variety of animals and plants and therefore need a varied diet to ensure that they receive an adequate nutritious diet. This means that in addition to buying enough meat to support a tiger, it is necessary to buy various nutrients and nutrient additives to add to the diet so that the tiger does not suffer from malnutrition and deficiency. As of January 1, 2012, anyone who owns, breeds or transports a tiger, lion, jaguar, leopard, snow leopard, clouded leopard, cheetah or hybrid of a registered cat must obtain a permit for each animal. The current owners had 60 days to obtain the permit. Applicants must be at least 21 years old and have never been convicted of animal cruelty or crime in the past 10 years, microchip, report deaths within 10 days, maintain $250,000 liability insurance and obtain a transport permit. Animal or humane shelters that keep a large carnivore for less than 90 days, law enforcement officials or Department of Agriculture employees, veterinarians, those who transport the animal only within the state, and USDA Class C exhibitors holding large carnivores on August 28, 2010 are exempt from licensing and microchipping requirements. provided that class C exhibitors who receive additional large carnivores, obtain permission for these animals. Circuses, the University of Missouri-Columbia College of Veterinary Medicine and Chapter 184 zoos are completely exempt from this law.
Those who keep a lion, tiger, leopard, ocelot, jaguar, cheetah, margay, mountain lion, Canada lynx, bobcat, or jaguarundi must register them with their local law enforcement agency. This does not apply to a zoo, circus, scientific or educational institution, research laboratory, veterinary clinic or animal shelter. You can own almost anything in this state and hunting bobcats is allowed. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service also aims to end illegal breeding and trafficking and « ensure that captive tiger breeding supports conservation goals, » according to the organization`s website. This may have been an escape for Joe Exotic: he claimed to breed the animals to save them from endangerment, even if their only life was trapped in captivity. The ban on owning a tiger is like the ban on owning a dog. It`s not necessarily bad if you remove the car.
Yes, it is very dangerous, but it is not wrong and it is the same as owning any other pet. Florida is one of the states that don`t allow tigers as pets, but there`s also a workaround: « You can get around the law by getting an exhibitor license from the USDA, » Bass added. We are a little different from other shrines, » Bass said. « If someone is a private owner of a cat and says, `Oh, I can`t handle this cat, I want to get rid of it,` we make them sign a contract saying they`ll never own an exotic cat again. » While the contract is not legally binding, it prevents owners from using protected areas like Big Cat Rescue as a landfill « because their cat has aged or sick or now needs medical attention, and they want to turn around and have a new cute little and start over. We do not want to be part of the problem. North Carolina does not have a general statewide law regulating the possession or possession of exotic or dangerous animals. However, each county in the state establishes its own ordinances that deal with exotic animal rules. This means that it sets rules on the types of animals you can own as pets. Requires a wildlife captivity permit for native cougars and bobcats, issued only to zoos and bona fide publicly funded educational or scientific research institutions. For the private property of cougars, the state needs natural habitats of rather grandiose proportions: enclosure of at least one hectare, fences of 12 feet with curve at 45 degrees, swimming pool, cave, vegetation and landscaping, the property must belong to the applicant. Zoos or scientific research institutes are allowed to keep cougars in concrete and chain link cages.
Natural habitats are not required for bobcats as they are for cougars, but the state has minimum cage size requirements. Must apply for an import permit if native cats are brought into the state from out of state. Must be a USDA exhibitor or research center to import native species from North or South America.

Other animals that do not require a permit include ferrets, chinchillas, llamas, alpacas, camels, giraffes, ostriches and kangaroos. After talking to Bass, I received another response from a salesman who was very optimistic about my dream of dressing my newly purchased tiger in a tuxedo modified for my fake act of magic: I had to find out for myself if it was really that easy; after all, I`m the kind of man who has been offered the opportunity to buy guns on Facebook. But to track down these sellers, I didn`t have to probe the depths of the dark web. All it took was to google « buy live tiger ».
After reviewing previous articles about live streams of the Detroit baseball team and a particularly resurgent golfer, I found ads on Exotic Animals for Sale and Adtob`s long deals on tigers. And even an advertisement showing a small child dancing with a wild cat. The price? Up to $2,000, but only $800. A typical advertisement for these big cats is: Hybrids may be legal in more states, but it depends on the generation. In upstate New York, Savannah cats are legal if they belong to the F5 generation. One salesman offered me such impressive perks as a tiger training manual as soon as I transferred money to him.
