If you own land, you can own exotics etc. Basically if you live in suburbia or city the chances are you have your hands full "owning" children or a poodle...tigers, bears and snakes that will swallow your poodle need not apply. The breed of a dog can be a smoke screen for some owners as all can do damage in the same enviroment left mismanaged and or untrained. The absolute worst I've been attacked in 23 yrs has been from all things a Husky. It is state to state as to what regulations are with regards to "wild or exotic" breeds-animals...some are grandfathered in rare cases, some require permits etc but personally...no small private dwelling or those in the proximity there of should house a fucking Tiger ffs. To Hell with OUR rights...they deserve better.
