Is Animal Planet's Fatal Sights Fair?

Updated on Could 17, 2014
A show that condemns various pet ownership
I make an attempt with anything I write about pet ownership to emphasize that not all animals make 'good' pets for the majority of individuals. The same concept applies to human kids. Animals have completely different requirements and care levels, and perhaps a number of are simply not suitable for captivity outdoors of essentially the most effectively-funded, professional zoos.
Nevertheless, private pet possession, animal captivity, whatever you need to call it, is continually beneath assault from numerous ‘information' articles, televised stories and sensationalistic media. It's a lethal combination; these exhibits are aimed towards ignorant people who find themselves occupied with viewing a freak show and not in learning about how some pet house owners responsibly reside a novel life with a challenging captive animal.
If the premise of Animal Planet's popular show Fatal Attractions intrigues you more than makes you wonder concerning the implications it is going to have on the lives of others, you are seemingly its target market, and are studying for the first time the 'shocking' truth that large unique carnivores, big snakes, and venomous reptiles may be bought with out a lot restriction in some states within the US (now approximately 6 states). The difficulty nevertheless, is not as black and white as the one-sided reviews will have you simply imagine.
Ming, Harlem's condominium tiger. An incredibly exceptional downfall of personal massive cat possession.
This Animal Planet series begins with a title sequence through which a background seems that appears as if it was lifted from a disturbing R-rated horror flick, to get you in the mood to view the demented people who like unusual pets. There may be creepy, spine-chilling music to match the environment. Clearly, it is apparent that no informative tone will exist right here; the present has already made up your thoughts on how one can react to the situations and the pets being saved.
The everyday format of an episode begins with a feminine-narrated sequence of reenactments combined with actual footage of exotic animals and fast cuts to close ups of teeth and the animal devouring its prey within the wild. Generally faux blood is tackily thrown in front of the camera within the portrayals, whether or not the story being spoken about comprises a loss of life or extreme harm.
The aesthetics often resemble an inexpensive commercial for a Sci-fi original film, nonetheless the present tries to stay their very own version of level-headed and fill time gaps by giving the featured re-enacted to-be-victims a again-story, just like other current exploitation-oriented TELEVISION sequence that feature hoarders. Typically interviews are held with people who have not been in a conflict, to offer 'insight' into the mentality of a wild animal owner. When current animal owners are interviewed, the eerie ambiance and the tone of voice from the narrator depict them as dancing with an impending dying. The anticipated reaction of the viewer is to be shocked and appalled that, after having witnessed a tragic story, these different owners of the same animals continue to personal their animals.

The stories of Deadly Attractions
Every hour long episode tries to center around a theme of comparable-kind animals. It is nearly assured that you will have heard of at least some of the stories introduced among the many episodes. A few of the most well-known (and those that have impressed the most oppressive bans) are these of Travis the chimp who gruesomely mauled his proprietor's pal, Ming the tiger found in a New York City condominium by a naïve zoo proprietor aspire-e, and stranglings by large pythons. It may well most likely be assumed that the lifeless horse beating will continue with a future new episode in regards to the Ohio incident. It by no means fails at getting the viewer into the mood to despise animal owners.
The present can also be now beginning to deviate from pet ownership to occupations resembling circuses, which is increasing the reveals' territory to animals used for business purposes. There are plenty of lesser identified, and typically sketchy stories featured on the present, reminiscent of a person supposedly ‘eaten' by his free-roaming monitor lizards, which have been greater than doubtless just ravenous, and feasting on the body of their deceased owner who died from a bacterial infection (this episode is notable for its potential to cross over to pets that are extra common, resembling reptiles), and a person who was killed by his pet bull (it must be noted that a bull is a domesticated animal). Burmese pythons are massive snakes, however they're actually generally saved by reptile keepers, and deaths by them are very uncommon, even when compared to domesticated canines.
Are pit bull homeowners subsequent?
Bryan Hawn together with his ex-pet Hyena in its new home.
Deadly Sights presents negligent animal owners
In the episode titled "Pet Hyena: No Laughing Matter", included is a story of a wild attack from a non-pet hyena. This is widespread in the present, likely because of the truth that there are not any other present tales of deaths from pet hyenas for the present to report on, so it serves as filler that pumps the viewer up for the main story which, despite the title, does not include a fatality.
What it does contain is an ideal instance of the real drawback with unique pet ownership: egocentric and irresponsible house owners. In the episode, male model Bryan Hawn obtains many unique pets, resembling even lemurs, to live in his Florida house. Persevering with on this, he illegally adds a hyena to his assortment, buying the animal from the extraordinarily unprofessional and unethical Animal Kingdom Zoo in Bordentown, NJ (this ‘zoo' also sells puppies that some imagine come from pet mills), despite barely having the acquisition value of the animal alone. While protecting even a canine in a small house would be unethical, he deludes himself into thinking he can maintain such a large carnivore locked in his residence. All too commonly, even with domestic pets, actuality units in as soon as his new pet turns into an adult. An opportunity surfaced permitting him to show his animal in with out penalty (an exotic animal 'amnesty day'), and that persuaded him to half with the animal. The animal at the moment resides on the Zoological Wildlife Foundation
Another example of weird human conduct is that of Antoine Yates, the owner of the tiger Ming, who was found in Antoine's Harlem condo. Antoine was not so fortunate as Hawn and was convicted to a 6-month prison term for his non-compliance with the legislation. Hawn, regardless of his unethical decisions, continues to advertise his expertise as ‘inspirational' and is allowed to go to his ex-pet at its new house. This offers perception into the values of that facility.
Televised Misconceptions about Unique Pets
Claims made by some animal ‘sanctuaries' and seemingly well-intentioned organizations such because the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) will lead you to consider that the unique pet trade is a thriving and expanding business. They will present statistics on unique pets that happen to incorporate every little thing from tigers to ferrets. What is an unique pet ? It is vital for the distinctions to be made. The phrase unique pet will not be synonymous with massive harmful wild carnivore, but all owners of exotic pets have the potential to be affected by laws prompted by ignorance. The claims of these organizations are supplemented with exhibits like Fatal Attractions, where it would seem that possession of untamed animals is uncontrolled in the United States.
Nevertheless, and quite obviously, truly personal-owned animals comparable to tigers, bears, and chimpanzees are uncommon. That might explain why attacks/conflicts involving such animals are additionally unusual compared to the non-stigmatized domesticated canines. Whereas large unique animals are far more difficult to keep up in captivity and require an owner who lives in a dedicated life-style not required of those who take care of home cats and some dogs, such un-average people with the correct financial necessities do exist. Have you ever heard of Big Cat Rescue ? These 'had been' unique pet house owners. How about Tippi Hedren's Shambala Wildlife Protect? She was definitely an exotic pet owner, purchasing and breeding hundreds of massive cats for a single movie look and as household pets. These animals resided on her property, and sometimes inside her home, as they did with Carole Baskin (the bobcats and servals), Large Cat Rescue's founder.
The distinction between these huge cat homeowners and people presented on Deadly Sights is socioeconomic status.
These individuals have now turned their pet owning situations into "sanctuaries" as have many others, so that it is extra acceptable to the general public. The truth is, not only does declaring your property a sanctuary permit you to continue protecting exotics, but it surely yields public donations and buckets of undeserved praise. In flip, individuals like this often help bans so nobody else can ever do what they do, with such new laws making it troublesome or not possible for a newcomer to start out their own 'sanctuary', and thus dropping more potential properties for undesirable wildlife. Other animal owners also have their lifestyles, desires, and possibly their potential to care for his or her current animals dashed as a result of public perception.
The very fact remains that unethical people who should not personal these animals will all the time ignore the regulation and achieve this anyway, like Hawn. Many states, counties and cities have already enacted a number of legal guidelines towards harmless ‘exotics', sometimes to such extremes as ferrets, sugar gliders and gerbils. It's an unjustified reaction partly because of the isolated incidents that Fatal Points of interest presents as the norm.
If these attacks and incidences of pure irresponsibility have been regular, why, at any time when so rarely that these animals do find yourself as the top news tales, are they sensationalized? Whereas canine attacks can virtually be heard about daily, assaults by large cats and other related animals are unusual and grow to be huge news when they are reported on. The Ohio incident, that is inspiring several laws around the country, reached worldwide notoriety.
Privately owned 'pet' tigers Source
Responsible animal owners rarely, if ever, find yourself within the news. But they would be the first ones to lose their right of pursuing happiness and the life they wish to live. I am circuitously supporting the ownership of such demanding animals; however, I feel that if the skills may be met, financially and training-clever, then somebody should not be barred from the opportunity to obtain the animal of their choice.
For many actions, there's a diploma of danger that the particular person doing the exercise accepts to dwell the life of their selecting. The degree of danger that captive exotics current to the public can also be exaggerated. There are proper ways to house bigger exotics, and in my view, I prefer it to be ‘hands off' after the animal matures.
Most importantly...
I'm actually not supportive of zero rules for obtaining and preserving such animals, and I'm not supportive of unethical breeding of such animals for captivity exterior of acknowledgement of the limited quantity of properties that could be available for them. I am supportive of laws that stop individuals like Bryan Hawn from obtaining wildlife. It all boils right down to frequent sense and assessing the info. Many believe that no wild animal can ever be happy in captivity, however it is impossible to help this place without considering that extra captive domesticated animals and common exotics are also in danger for mistreatment. Both method, romanticized views of where wildlife 'belongs' and unproven claims mustn't dictate the lifestyles and decisions of others, and definitely not spontaneous selections enacted by televised misinformation.

I feel your opinion on how this show make the viewer really feel about these animals is so far off the truth its ridiculous.I just like the present and it doesn't make me nor anyone else I do know who watches hate these animals or their house owners.I feel your slender minded viewpoint must take a step additional into reality.

Leelu, belief me, I might love to be incorrect about this. You and the 'individuals you know' do not symbolize the bulk. I believe it is very slim-minded to speak for everyone else. I am a person who must deal with the fallout of backlash that exhibits like this cause day by day. Go on any forum about this present and examine the comments.
jess 3 years in the past
This present is a sometimes guilty pleasure of mine. In many circumstances the pet proprietor was taken irresponsible risks and that led to the incident, for instance the venomous snake owner who free dealt with her snakes, and in these instances they pointed that out. In different stories the pets weren't properly cared for, which was additionally highlighted, the starving & underweight python involves thoughts in addition to 2 of the episodes featuring big cats who had been residing in squalor. I believe some people could indeed get the flawed idea from this show. For me, the takeaway is that these animals are difficult to maintain & owners who do not have ample resources or data are putting themselves and their animals at risk. You need to solely ever preserve pets that you've the sources to properly take care of. I have a 130 gal aquarium. I really like octopus, it will be superb to maintain one & I certainly have a large enough aquarium. Will I ever? In all probability not because I know that their necessities surpass my expertise and talent. Individuals need to consider these items before they purchase any animal whether or not it is 'unique' or not.

That's another method of looking at it Jess. I might like to have an octopus, however they don't live long.
Jess 3 years in the past
No they don't dwell lengthy, about 6-12 months on average IIRC. And so they're extremely excessive maintenance, require a specialised atmosphere, very good filtration, frequent water modified, and many others. They can be saved quite efficiently however most of those who are profitable in their endeavors are very experienced in salt water aquaria. I am going to stick to my large 'ole goldies for now and perhaps some puffers once more sometime :) Though I've to say my dwarf puffers had been deceptively excessive maintenance, which simply goes to point out that it's a must to be ready for surprises with any species with special needs.
I come from a protracted line of critter lovers, every thing from horses to accommodate bunnies, so I maintain a fairly open thoughts on the subject of exotic pets. I believe it comes down the fact that many people can't meet the needs of those animals adequately. My area of interest, if it wasn't obvious, is aquaria and this is typically the case in that hobby as well nevertheless it's not thought-about problematic to the public at massive as a result of the people don't get harm. Personally, I'm just as saddened when I see a betta in a cup or a goldfish in a bowl as when I see 'exotics' in similarly subpar conditions.
Have you seen "The Elephant In The Dwelling Room"? It's a very well completed documentary with a much more nuanced presentation of this subject than "Deadly Attractions".
Melissa A Smith three years ago from New York

Nicely, I can not say that The Elephant in the Residing Room was any much less propagandist than Deadly Points of interest..maybe it was much more. The main function was after all an individual who was of a low socioeconomic status...and it is very frequent to find animals of any species suffering from neglect in these situations (even if the proprietor is trying). The owner clearly had no business with lions, and it was negligent to acquire them from the beginning. Then he failed to forestall their breeding. All typical with canines and cats as effectively. Presentations like those need to suggest each exotic pet holding state of affairs is like this. Additionally they demonized reptile exhibits. I don't suppose too many individuals will end the movie with a optimistic picture of unique pet keepers. Responsible keepers don't exist within them.

Dj, most of the instances should not illegal, and a large majority of them, if not all of them did not result in harm to individuals who were uninvolved with the situation. I did not see each episode so I might need missed single incidents. People put themselves in plenty of other of different proven hazardous conditions with canine ownership, driving, and alcoholic consumption. Unique animal-triggered accidents are extremely rare.

i feel these assholes who need to dominate these animals get precisely what they deserve whether or not it be a mauling, stomping or poisoning u need to comprehend that god did not put these animals right here for your sickass obsession trying 2 be more than an strange human that doesn't have any respect or care 4 these poor creatures. get another life or suffrer

I don't know what you're speaking about as I don't observe your radical non secular beliefs. Nor do I feel I've any respect to your wishes of hurt against me over some captive animals. So really, maintain ranting like an fool and see what influence you'll end up making on my beliefs.
kim 3 years ago
properly that is your opinion my beliefs aren't radical any fool is aware of that its the law of nature itself and whenever you attempt to take away from it you blantantly and outrite disrespect how issues are alleged to be. if your not helping them then your hurting them theres obviously no academic worth to what your saying. so i believe those captive animals will somedayl make a believer out of you and each different idiot who thinks they will tame nature in some dangerous manner form or form because you do deserve precisely what you get so how in the hell are you able to argue with that?

Good article, Melissa.
You make some glorious factors. Folks watch these exhibits and make blanket judgements about anyone and everyone who retains exotic pets. After which there are those like Miss Texas which might be just out of their goofy minds with or without watching propaganda.
Unique pets, like say, guns, should actually be kept out of the hands of some people. There must be a licensing program where individuals present they can look after a selected animal properly earlier than being licensed to own one. That is one other state of affairs where somewhat bit of common sense regulation can go a long way.

Hi Matt, I agree. Not everybody should have any kind of pet.

Great article Melissa. I have to admit I do watch the present, & it does appear that they aim ingnorant (in some circumstances but not all), inexperienced & individuals that do not seem educated or have the correct sources to care for his or her exotic pets. I personally have a big Burmese Python, which I've had for 14 years & never had any incidents, even when my kids were small. You mentioned 6 states that enable purchases of enormous exotics, are you aware which states?
Melissa A Smith 2 years ago from New York

Alphadogg16 -I watched it too, it's an attention-grabbing idea, but after all it is a kind of reveals that should place a 'why' on the incidences so they come up with numerous nonsense to satisfy the viewer. There are terrible unique animal homeowners on the market but that's the case with all animals. Glad you are having success together with your python, they are banned here.

It really bothers me that the one commentor's to defend the animals, couldn't type a proper sentence. I discovered the article fascinating, and have had exotics (principally reptiles/amphibians) my complete life. However, I disagree that you must be able to preserve them in captivity. A tiger would not need to reside in your yard. The fact that you dismissed it as "just some captive animals" is flawed. I'm not radical, or extremely non secular however I don't subscribe to the notion that I'm extra deserving of my life than one other dwelling, breathing creature.

Why are you mendacity and making up crap? To make your viewpiont look like it is the right one to have? What you stated about Ms. Hendren's sanctuary is complete crap. Do some research before you spout off next time.
That is the true story behind it.
As for the show Deadly Points of interest: I observed that you conveniently overlooked the elements the place they interviewed precise family members and mates of the individuals who saved these harmful (sure, HARMFUL) animals. Do you actually think Animal Planet goes to risk slander or libel lawsuits? Get actual. And FYI: they by no means mentioned those lizards ate him whereas he was dwelling. Furthermore: you tossed within the man with the pet bull to add weight to your lies....you also overlooked the half where that bull had free reign in his house. So don't faux he was grazing out in some grassy subject.
The truth is ANY animal can have momentary lapses in affection. I have had my share of scratches from playing with my pets...particularly my raccoon when he was a child and he was hungrily grabbing my fingers as I held his bottle.
I have zero drawback with people who personal, or need to personal, an unique animal so long as they do it in an informed manner...not being mislead by some one varnishing the truth by making an attempt to make herself out to be some professional.
Another FYI: illegal unique ownership IS rampant in the US. Don't kid yourself or anyone else.
P.S. Before you make snide remarks about another person's grammar...test your personal.

tkbarrera-
I'm attempting to figure out why you're so indignant, there may be clearly some kind of agenda hidden behind your phrases. You declare to agree with my viewpoint "I have zero problem with people who own, or need to own, an unique animal so long as they do it in an knowledgeable method." which IS what I believe, however now who's "mendacity"? You clearly have a problem with it, as you are taking on the identical hysterical tone that anti-unique pet people use with me, and you declare I am making an attempt to "making my viewpoint look like the right one to have".
Possibly you just hate people with unique pets which might be bigger than your racoon that you allege you have got. Why not reduce the crap and tell me what your actual stance is?
"That is the real story behind it."
I do not see a single phrase in that article that's totally different from what I said. Or are you simply naïve enough to fall for Hedren's editorializing, using phrases like "rescue"? Why don't you hear it from the horse's mouth, before you accuse me of 'not researching' since you discovered some nonsense on a random weblog: ?v=0L5Pk7dFg0Q
Here, I will write it out for you simply in case you are too prideful to learn the truth and appear like a idiot:
"Well after we first started they had been extra animal park animals, extra zoo animals, extra circus animals you already know that sort of factor but, I think half of them were born proper right here".
You see, folks use the word "RESCUE" all the time. Buying animals will not be rescue. Or is it that you simply think that as a result of in that little weblog it is said that 'Hollywood instructed to acquire the animals' that you just feel my assertion that she bought unique pets on her personal volition is invalid? I can't determine which considered one of these stances is more stupid.
" I seen that you simply conveniently disregarded the components where they interviewed precise family members and associates of the people who kept these dangerous (yes, HARMFUL) animals."
And what's your point? Why is this essential? Are you accusing me of claiming Animal Planet LIED that these conditions occurred? Why not actually learn my article, so-called racoon owner?
"Another FYI: illegal exotic possession IS rampant in the US. Do not child yourself or anybody else."
Oh past a DOUBT. Considering it is illegal to personal a ferret in California it is rather simple to be in violation of asinine pet legal guidelines. I don't recall ever saying unlawful pet possession is not frequent.
"P.S. Before you make snide remarks about another person's grammar...examine your individual."
I'm not anxious about an individual's assessment of my grammar when they lack fundamental studying comprehension ability. That's way more embarrassing than just a few typos.

I know what this show is actually based on and not those of animal planet or zoos but these episode takes a take a look at what kind of people are on the market.After watching this present,I got here up with a risk of why individuals do that and it those who love type of individuals are they and the identical with all about obsession,hoarding,cruelty and psychological psychological problems that make some people worry the world and the society and so concentrate on being around animals and not folks.

Nick, I am positive if you happen to died from a pet unique animal they can spin any your interests and hobbies not directly to make you seem like a deranged freak. The present only places the magnifying glass on those who are lifeless, that tells you NOTHING about the millions of people who find themselves comfortable and alive with their exotics. So cease utilizing it as an excuse to consolation your self that your ignorant views are grounded in truth.
Jess M 20 months ago
I understand what you're attempting to say however some species just should not be owned privately. I've owned unique pets before from snakes to rats to kinkajous. I know they are not all unhealthy. I really like my kinkajou to dying and he or she eats a balanced weight loss program and has a big enclosure. She's very pleasant and curious and behaves just like a ferret. Unfortunately, my snake handed away final yr from old age. She was 22 years previous.
That being stated, massive cats and other giant wild animals ought to never be kept as pets. They are harmful and unpredictable. If someones pet raccoon had been to bite them it will imply a number of puncture wounds and maybe a stitch or two, no huge deal. If someones pet tiger were to bite someone it might mean loss of life for both beings. I say we should always leave the zoos and wildlife sanctuaries take carethem. If somebody needs to care for one they'll volunteer. These animals belong in the wild. If not within the wild then a big enclosure at a zoo. They undoubtedly don't belong in someones backyard.

Attitudes like yours are the reason you will not be capable to get a brand new kinkajou as soon as your present one dies of outdated age Jess M. I've no desire to get a tiger and was even nervous concerning the thought of getting a kinkajou being that it's as giant as a racoon with matching enamel which may assault. Somebody may decide this has no business in your house. Depressing to see that even an exotic pet owner does not get it.
Jess M 20 months in the past
Attitudes like mine? Yes, kinkajous has sharp enamel and claws. Yes they will do some damage. But there is completely no method one can break your neck with a paw. In Florida, we have three courses of animal licenses. Kinkajous fall under class three which are all of the smaller and fewer dangerous species like raccoons, toucans, lemurs, marmosets, and so forth.
There may be completely no means you'll be able to evaluate my kinkajou to a hyena or a rattlesnake or a bear. If my state wanted to outlaw the possession of class 3 animals I would fight against it. She isn't a threat to me and my household nor to anybody else. If she escapes, there isn't any chance she will eat somebody's dog. Hell, she is going to most likely be the one eaten. I believe you shouldn't be so closed minded. There a the 2 extremes: one aspect needs zoos outlawed and all the animals launch and the opposite wants all zoos authorized and wild pet laws to be lenient. Everyone ought to be somewhere within the middle. Then we wouldn't have this downside of these insane people getting in a cage with a pack of wolves thinking they love her then they end up eating her.

Sure, the perspective that you may decide how a lot danger someone can topic themselves to. The state may resolve that non-deadly mutilation can be too much to permit. Plus, young youngsters are just about able to be killed by something larger than a cat. You might want to try my latest article to see how frequent it is for folks to die by the hands of privately owned huge cats (and extra importantly, from escaped large cats, have not completed bears, hyenas, ect. but). There are methods to keep up them with out ever touching them. I am not shut-minded, I've considered this extensively. I've listed how I really feel animals must be regulated in another publish.
Also, it is actually crazy if toucans are class three, given that they're actually innocent.
