A few nice exotic animals images I found:

The challenge was to showcase the exotic wildlife in its context, while being honest about the fact that it is a tourist destination as well as a nature reserve.

Oshine

Oshine is a female Orang-utan that we believe was born in the wild and then captured as an infant in Indonesia. She was then moved to South Africa as an exotic pet. We estimate she was born in 1997 and she arrived at Monkey World 13 years later on 31/08/10. As an infant, she was given to a couple living in South Africa to raise as a pet in their home. Oshine grew up in the house wearing clothes and eating a human diet. At 6-7 years old she became too difficult to keep in the house and the family built her an enclosure of her own. With little exercise and a diet which included sweets and processed food, Oshine developed a weight problem.
