First and foremost, the reasons why people keep makes an exotic animal as their pet because there are a lot of exotic animals being promoted on social media. The author found on Facebook and Instagram with countless. Local accounts are selling a various type of wild animals to be adopted as pets. For instance, the animals that get high demand are goshawk eagle, Asian palm civet and dusky leaf monkey.
Moreover, keeping an exotic animal also makes them look cute and cool. The owner keeps on posting their pet on timeline, to show to everyone that they have an exotic animal. For examples, they dressed up their pets with fancy clothes to be adore by their followers.

The author also highlights that exotic pet cannot live longer without a proper care. One of the netizens said the dusky leaf monkey would live for a few months because of its complex digestive system. This is because they use unsuitable feeding to their pet without any concern.
We agree with the author about having an exotic animal as a pet in their life is totally wrong. If seller keeps making a promotion to persuade others to buy, it can lead to negative impact to the exotic animals. For examples, increase an illegal hunting and extinction of endangered animals.
