Exotic pets include reptiles, small animals, and even some basic farm animals. But I know what you mean in this article. I do think it's wrong if someone doesn't have the means to take care of an exotic animal to keep them in cages.
But on the other hand, some have strong bonds with exotic animals like lions or monkeys, maybe because they saved them when they were young or rescued them from danger. Some of these people keep their "pets" in a contained environment that's suited for the animal and release them when the animal is recovered or ready.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
