I studied animal management at college, will be studying veterinary nursing at university next year and have been working with animals for nearly seven years.

[@thewr0ngchild]

You have a meerkat in a tiny tank on it's own, meerkats are incredibly smart, social animals that need to be kept in groups, and do not make good pets unless you have lots of space to provide burrowing and desert type environments. Apart from that, I hope pets bring the Japanese and Chinese closer to our animal friends, and the next generation begins to treat animals with more respect than these countries do now.

This is absolutely horrible. The sugar gliders do not need to be in small glass boxes, with no way to glide, and with so many more sugar gliders. Yes, I understand they're very social animals but I mean, come on. It's over crowded in there. Sugar Glider. Sugar Glider. What word did you hear in there? Glide. Not Sugar Stay In An Over Crowded Cage. These small, lovable creatures deserve so much more than to be put in to these glass tanks with nothing more than what? shavings and some fruit? I used to own one of them about a year ago, she had died due to it being far too cold and that is part of the reason that this angers me so much. I know just how amazing so many of these animals are, just how sweet, affectionate and beautiful so many of these poor creatures are. Yet people treat them so poorly. It's all about the money they'll make off of the animals and that is absolutely horrendous. I am a twelve years old and I'm even able to tell that and have better judgement.

[@hallyuniverse]

Sugar gliders don't /need/ to glide, that's only for reaching food and to escape predators, which they don't need to do in captivity. But they do need a larger cage, attention and somewhere off the ground to hide. They are nocturnal animals and shouldn't be kept in confined spaces in broad daylight as it is stressful to them.

[@alexispickel3286]

+Canadian Blaze you can clip the wings so they don't fly off...you don't need to tie them down

[@Lilmoviegirl]

Often times, people will tie leather strings with a bell attached to the string to an owl's leg so people can hear it as the owl flies around. Owls are very well known for having feathers that cannot be heard as they fly, helping them catch prey at night. Tying a string with a bell on it is often a good soloution than just straight up clipping a bird's wings, which should /try/ to be avoided if possible. Of course, I could be wrong and there's not a bell there, but that's a pretty common thing when it comes to having owls as pets or rehabbing owls.

[@filthyprank5164]

[@xXpurplebuddy]

I feel like some of those animals can't even be handled.

[@xXpurplebuddy]

First of all, I'm not an asshole. I handle certain types of animals on a daily basis, but not animals as wild as these. I feel like some of these might not be able to be handled properly because they are commonly known as wild animals. But maybe they were handled before and actually aren't that wild. Second, not all of these animals are reptiles. There are obviously mammals too. I wasn't even talking about the reptiles.

[@DryGrindersHD]

xXpurplebuddy i agree but with u okay but i have allot of those animals and they are great animals you just need to be carefull only thing that made me mad is becouse there are country's that doesnt allow these kind of animals only becouse of the bad things peaple say but realy dont know anything about it they only see bad in those animals but they realy arent i hope you understand couse here in holland they already tought about not allowing these animals anymore

[@devonbrown7662]

Same thoughts exactly however I recommend the non-poisonous variety?

[@Natlatify]

DryGrindersHD He's not saying that these animals are bad, he's saying you'd have a hard time handling them. I mostly imagine he's talking about the mammals that aren't properly domesticated - the meerkat, the prarie dogs, the Armadillos. Those are animals that have not been selectively bred and domesticated over hundreds of years as cats and dogs and hamsters have. These are animals that are probably one or two generations away from the wild, which means their temperament isn't going to be like that of a pet, more of a wild animal that will not enjoy handling or affection and will likely bite you, as it sees you as a threat to it's survival.

This is sickening to watch how Asians treat animals like this. They are always the ones to torture them, I wish they are tortured as well.

Plus the poor owl, it was strapped on a perch and was not aloud to go anywhere, staying on a perch for long periods of time is bad for their feet. How would you like it if your feet were strapped on a bar and you weren't aloud to move? Your feet would hurt just like the bird's.

why arent the birds on perches like the north american stores, doesnt being on the ground too long hurt their feet?

[@SolitaryEngel]

Yes it does. they need perches of varying widths to prevent their feet from forming arthritis. Flat surfaces or perches that are all the same width causes lots of problems long-term.

[@iiisopod]

You are right, but i have a feeling those might still be juvenile birds. so they may not be able to maneuver a smallish display cage properly yet and will just result in injury. Young birds like this are sold to be hand reared and become people friendly (which is great because they get to come out of their cages to fly and interact with people)

[@SolitaryEngel]

The thing to keep in mind, though, is that pet stores tend to retain a percentage of animals for a long time before they are sold. Especially expensive animals, or ones that need extra care. Some of those birds might be in that cage for months before they get bought. :/

[@iiisopod]

Kimberly Hartley That is a possibility but since we dont know the exact way the store handles birds we dont know if fully grown ones would be moved into a larger cage. I would prefer all the animals get more space and thats something that frustrates me about a lot of pet stores in general. But they seem to be in good health and if they were depressed or sick it would probably show a bit more. I had gotten a young ringneck from a similar situation and its quite common for younger birds to be kept in class/plastic tanks. And since these are probably hand raised, people might buy them much quicker then the others.

furryfritter it has nothing to do with whether they look healthy it's that they are in small cages that they probably never get to get out of. Just because they might be in good physical condition doesn't mean that they are happy. For example the groundhog is biting at the bars of its cage because it wants to come out!

Blows my mind when I see our native lizards ,birds and mammals for sale as pets in other countries when we don't allow it here this shit needs to stop

[@inc6117]

Do pets like bearded dragons anger you or is it more exotic and wild animals that anger you? Out of curiosity. I'd like to know your thoughts.

[@natalieluders378]

Beared dragons, suger gliders and wild but mainly australian natives

[@inc6117]

Really? Because bearded dragons make excellent pets.

[@natalieluders378]

+Ryan Endicott No doubt they make fantastic pets that's not the point here in Australia you have to obtain a reptiles license to own any of our wild native animals and that's if your lucky it upsets me that our native animals are treated as pets

[@thederptor2571]

Better than China at least and North Korea can afford pets and need them for food.

[@knockpainter]

Human is dominating on others lifeform. That's normal. Only your feelings can tell that it's wrong. Just deal with it.

[@mamahasgun3643]

Japanese only think they're KAWAII. But i mean, EXOTIC ANIMALS are not pets for you to play with. This is is so cruel.

[@kozzak88]

Dude, you look so much like Rick from The Walking Dead. Awesome videos too, been on a streak watching them all =)

[@ataintedfriend]

Fix your own problems in your own countries before you try to make it world wide. Action speak louder than words. I lived in America: SF LA NYC, Canada, Asia: Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Europe: Paris, Florence, Berlin, Bretange & Gratz. I've seen great animal husbandry and some worse in suburban America and European cities; therefore, you can't base something on a nationality or ethnicity. That's like saying humans owning a dog and cat is cruel, spaying and neutering a dog and cat is cruel, or domesticating or making hybrid dogs and cats are cruel. Dogs came from wolves... cats came from wild cats. Humane Societies and other shelters are killing pets everyday so you can go set up a riot there if you're some real activist instead of spending your days upsetting others online. Every culture has it's own view, you need understand people's culture and location before you make these judgments. People think cats and dogs should be able to run freely, if locked indoors it is cruel, while animal shelters and other societies say cats and dogs should be strictly indoors due to the danger of vehicles and predators. Everyone has their own opinions and methods. If you come to Japan or any other foreign country people will think you're different or weird. The way people grew up and do things are handled and done differently based on nationality and demographics. As far as stereotypes go, people in Asia make fun and have their own jokes of white people, where as Americans have jokes on Asians, Blacks and Jews etc. I've heard the reverse stereotype, "why do white people all look the same?" It's the same world wide - you can't change how people do things - but you can change the way you look at, think of and approach things. Be open and respectful on your word choice and please see or think of both sides of the story before you make an assumption or make judgements. If you give the benefit of both sides your argument will be taken more seriously. Also, please FILTER your anger and make it positive instead of useless bickering. Thank you.

[@alinedamirror5528]

+ataintedfriend It's true. We have farms of hybrid cats and dogs and we believe it's "normal or better". There are cruelty inside pets farms.

[@kryscurr]

+ataintedfriend Asia as a whole is known for their terrible treatment of Animals . There are some that know better, but most of the conditions you speak of in the west are ILLEGAL and are done as a SMALL part of the country. Not Most of it. Shops like this are common in Japan. Shoot they even put LIVE animals is SEALED bags and sell them as keychains. While yes, we have many issues, we are far less cruel as this as a whole And actually the Humane society is no-kill across the nation.

[@marioalejandro3048]

+Displaced_Texan asia has diffrent laws than AMERICA here things like this is common and legal

[@ferdynandl4754]

FireStar_Betta and american and european bought the "illegal" pet

[@walterkanehl5624]

ataintedfriend shut your damn mouth

[@bmoremetal]

I am guessing their animal rights are pretty much nonexistent. Some of those animals are dead, if not sleeping. Along with other problems with the way they are kept, such as the birds.

[@usedtogiveadamnbutnevergav1960]

wtf A MEERKAT? I feel like this is cruel.. like 90% of these animals dont belong here at ALL. AND I MEAN AT ALL. THESE ARE WILD ANIMALS NOT PETS DAMNIT

[@MrLizestelle]

+Natalie D. plus they like to borrow ....:(

[@Rainbow_Rockstar]

+Natalie D. i know right meerkat like to be in pack of many that's called a MOP not alone!!

[@sneeuwluipaard2344]

anime obsessing bleach Dogs used to be wild animals too but nooooooo now we can keep them as pets.

[@ErikaGrosspietsch]

So you notice that all those animals that really need socialization were all clawing and biting at the cage?! Like, sugar gliders need wire cages, not fish tanks. And Meer cats need lots of places to dig

[@donmichi7]

sad how it looks so normal as if stores like that are common, but i've never been to japan so I can't really tell....well I really hope that there aren't many stores like that....what's also pretty sad is how the animals are chilling right next to the glasswalls of their cage...like they try to escape but simply don't have the power anymore to do so....

[@faiths.4971]

some of the hampsters look dead O.O

[@faiths.4971]

***** i know that they are nocturnal, i have owned two of them, but I've never seen them sleep like that :|

[@Dancereky]

things like this, WOULD BE ILLEGAL IN THE U.S!!!!! I mean the birds, snakes, rabbits, and lizards I can understand BUT PRAIRIE DOGS?! MEERKATS?!! CHICKS?!?!!!!!!! ONE! prairie dogs, and meerkats belong in their NATURAL HABITAT!!! Not in someones home, or a glass box!! Two, baby birds should NOT be in a fricking pet store!!!! They need to be in their nests, protected and fed by their mothers. The ones in the store, wasn't even near being ready to fly! If its this bad in japan, then doesn't it make ya wonder how much worse it is in china? >

[@mlltianxiezuo]

does this video have anything to do with China???!!! U just assume, honey, hard evidence please, just like the video.

[@Adam_moore50678]

Linlin Miao actually your the one who needs to do some research (: before opening your mouth at-least know the facts before you can go saying ignorant comments. China still doesnt have hard foundation animal cruelty laws thank you very much. so respect that guys opinion and everyone else.

[@tawnylawns]

This is horrible :(. It is really like a awful zoo.... Even with the regular pets you can't put so many in one pet store and sell them off like products.... If people didn't buy them stores like this wouldn't exist so it shows how much the majority in Japan DON'T know about animal cruelty. The most stressful 10 min vid I've ever watched on KZbin :(. I can't imagine how stressful it is for the animals there.

[@zbb69bbz]

This store makes me angry, but that baby owl being held there like that is just awful.

[@kedamono639]

Do you hear that? It's the sound of countless enclosed birds screaming for help.

[@awesomeking6]

you look like rick from the walking dead

[@emmas8833]

OMG meerkats should be out in the wild making dens and scavenging for bugs wtf.

[@emmas8833]

Also, every where does have animal abuse but the thing is, Asia is notorious for it if you think I'm lying watch the tv special extinct.

[@raybuggy11]

Yeah they need to be in groups as well as they need to have underground dens which is hard to duplicate so they really shouldn't be pets

[@emmas8833]

I agree it would be extremely hard to mimic their natural habitats

[@Rainbow_Rockstar]

+Ray Mkay right meerkats r in a group called a mop and they keep eachother safe and healthy this is just sad!!

[@Faliat]

What the hell? Why are the birds in tanks? They need perches! Cool pet shop, though. If I lived there I'd go in everyday and leave with something new. Lol.

[@griphlican21]

The birds are in tanks because they r babies and cannot perch yet for their safety....weird that a pet shop would sell un weaned babies tho :/

[@gusevans474]

griphlican21 birds dont need weaned.... weaned means that you stop feeding them milk. birds dont need milk as babies....

[@penultimate7388]

Gus Evans They do need to be weaned. Birds are fed by their parents until a certain age, where they then find their own food. Another definition of "wean" is to accustom someone to managing without something on which they have become dependent or of which they have become excessively fond. Since the birds are becoming independent of the food their parents feed them, you could say they are being weaned. Lots of birds are fed food that their parents regurgitate and is not completely solid food. Some other birds feed their young something called "crop milk". It comes from the lining of the crop and is regurgitated by the parent. :)

[@music20004ever]

You couldn't even dream of finding half these animals in English pet stores. And that's not a bad thing!

[@codyjames3637]

I feel bad for all the animals but at least there kept clean for the amount of critters they have

[@Dylan-Hooton]

I wish that exotic pets were legal in California, so I could have a pet meerkat.

[@Kurovelli]

I want the opossum lol

[@Dylan-Hooton]

While I want meerkats and tapirs. LOL :D

[@mango-pu6wc]

+The QuietBlueBird they shouldn't even be pets

[@piplup229]

+The QuietBlueBird yea, although a lot of these are cute and would be cool to have as pets, a lot, if not most of them appear to be illegal pets. Plus, those enclosures seem WAY to small and inhumane for a lot of those animals.

[@Dylan-Hooton]

Then why do Japanese people keep them if we're not allowed to have any one of these?

[@casey-gt8nl]

And I thought most Asian Chinese and Japanese were buddist

[@marioalejandro3048]

U know how racist that sounds

[@casey-gt8nl]

I was jk

[@tessaparker2375]

well it didn't seem like it.. >:\

[@marioalejandro3048]

Im christian you know and a kid

[@casey-gt8nl]

I am Buddhist and a child I am very sorry I never realized how racist that sounded.

[@idkwhattoputherebuthi153]

Some of those pets aren’t even supposed to be pets. Poor owl 🦉

[@TC-ek6fo]

There are so many things wrong with the animals' setups I can't even count them all...

[@mosddoomsday1]

You know what I just love? WHEN PEOPLE FILL THE FUCKING VIDEO WITH SHIT!

[@TK-se6ms]

It's so fascinating and interesting but sad at the same time.

[@ChloeStardawn]

i feel sorry for all the squirrels in cages they have so much energy and no where to use it! :c

[@YungMarty]

Is It Just Me Or You Actually Look Like Negan

[@fristangutierrez7594]

awww :C it made me cry seeing those cute buddies kept in small cages with a lot of people around .just imagine how stressful they are.

[@ButlerOutdoorsNY]

the birds in the tank with no weres to fly arround like a nice cage really got to me....
