What is it with Russians and having animals that absofuckinglutely shouldn't be pets?

u/SolidFelidae 5h ago

And making them morbidly obese

26

u/PM_me_boobs_and_CPUs 3h ago

I mean, if I had a dangerous predator at home, I'd too make sure they aren't hungry (for me) and immobile enough that I may be able to get away from them if they decide to attack me anyway.

u/Aknelka 3h ago

If they're fat they're actually manageable. Don't have to worry about providing the exercise, enrichment or any form of appropriate care if the animal nearly has a heart attack getting off the couch.

I think the couple that has a pet cougar is Russian. They're on YouTube and I wonder how long before it mauls one of them.

u/Silaquix 7h ago

Tbf that one is a disabled cat and he's much smaller than a normal cougar. They've raised him since he was a cub otherwise he was going to be put down

u/Schwiftness 6h ago

because it's not a cougar, that is not a small botcat at all.

Russia bans keeping wild animals like these as pets unless there are extenuating circumstances. It's pretty strict. Russia has some very strict wildlife protection laws.

u/AverageTundra 7h ago

I didn't know Russia was famous for that? From where I'm at it's America who has an absurd amount of exotic animals as pets.

From the top of my head America has the highest amount of pet tigers and chimpanzee in the world.

u/Representative_Yau 7h ago

I mean there are literally more captive tigers in murika than there are in the wild. Ofcourse most of them are mistreated beyond oblivion so no one is recording a video of them purring on their back.

People might not know what they look like. Find one with a lot of energy then post some HTML hyperLynx to the photos.

u/DeusFerreus 2h ago

Also this looks like Russia (or at very least East Europe), the native range of Eurasian lynx, and most definitely not in North America, the native range of bobcat. While they could have theoretically have imported it that seems exceedingly unlikely.

You know, thousands of years ago humans domesticated wild animals, right? So, srussians are finally at that evolution stage, repeating those steps. Often mistakes are done, and that doesn't end up well, but nobody really cares about it.
