I think wild animals should stay in the wild. We have domesticated enough already, just let them be who they are for once!

I agree with this.

I would wish to have a pet lion if it becomes domesticated but I have to make sure that one is a friendly one... once its on the attack, there is no going back...

Interesting fact : There are more captive Tigers in Texas than there are wild Tigers in India!

Kept in maximum security pens of course, with 5 experienced Australian wildlife specialists stationed around the perimeter at all times.

Gorillas because I find them strangely similar to us. I'd also would love experiencing what it'd be like to communicate with them through sign language. Yes I know gorillas aren't smart but they're way of socializing is still fascinating nonetheless.

Tigers...Lions...and bears oh my. They just look big and cuddly, who'd ever think they're really just wanting to rip you to pieces.

Dolphins because they're so smart imo and have such individual personalities.

Seals they're just interesting what can I say?

Jellyfish, very beautiful specimens, if only they didn't sting.

Wolves, it's interesting in the way they bond and socialize in groups. It's like watching kids in school making it to the popularity competition.

And the list goes on...

I'd like to see Blue Jays domesticated. That would be a neat sight to see. "This is my pet Blue Jay. His name is Toronto."

the cheetah, which actually has been previously domesticated for over 4000 years, then was abandoned as a house-animal. cheetahs purr [unlike every other big cat] and make a meow-like chirp, they [tame ones] like having their jowls scratched just like morris the cat does. they will bump their foreheads against you in an affectionate "love bump" and will lick you [but their tongues can draw blood]. they don't like water [again, just like morris]. only bad thing is that they like eating housecats.
