Crocodile

Do you have a pond on your property? Why not place a real crocodile there instead of fish or decorations? Snakes, lizards, iguana: you can have them all.

Elephants, giraffes, rhinos

All of these natives of African countries can become your companions, but it's hard to imagine what conditions you need to create for them.

Primates

Having a monkey in the house is unusual but quite possible. They are easy to train, but there can be more harm from such pets.
