The Japanese seem to adore these vibrantly-colored insects, and from them, this culture is slowly spreading throughout the world. Who would’ve thought that these creatures could also be kept as pets? The tradition of keeping them as pets probably began in Japan, where these insects are still most commonly kept as pets. Yes, we are talking about the small, winged insects that have the largest group of insects in the whole world, consisting of over 400,000 distinct species.
All these, though quite unusual, can still be considered as pets. Now, try to be more creative and think of the more exotic pets, such as birds like finches and cockatiels, toads, water dragons, box turtles, crabs, even raccoons, and ferrets. When you hear the term “pet,” what is the first picture that emerges in front of your eyes? Probably a cat or a dog, or even a goat or a horse.
