I'm on the fence. I understand trying to not be biased and show both sides but the writing style still annoyed me. he is biased (I think) but I felt I was questioning as I read based on things he said. it covers a wide range of ownership types but focuses mostly on big cats, apes, and snakes.

I am biased and don't believe exotics should be allowed. while the curtain was pulled back in some instances im not sure I got everything I wanted out of this book. it wasn't as educational as I hoped and jumped around a lot.
