    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.

    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. This video literally made me sick with rage. If a store like that was opened in England, it'd be closed down before the end of the first day..

    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
      @hallyuniverse 10 років тому +3

      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.

      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 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.

    • @Lilmoviegirl
      @Lilmoviegirl 8 років тому

      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.

    the tegu enclosure... NO!
    TORTOISES CANNOT BE KEPT IN CLEAR TANKS! FOR CRYING OUT LOUD ITS DANGEROUS!!! Also too small
    The groundhog is in way to tiny of an enclosure, and doesn't have nearly as much as it should
    The degus are in a glass tank, THEY SHOULD BE IN A WIRE CAGE

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. If only these idiotic Asians would put themselves in the animals's shoes and see what it's like to be treated this way.

Pets are not commodities, it's time we began treating them as animals and not accessories. Unless you are going to eat an animal, in which case you still need to provide a good lifestyle, clean environment, vet care and other practical livestock management, then you should be treating your pets as you would a fellow human.

      and they keep them in wrong enclosures!! I mean where have you ever seen a parrot or any bird for the matter being put in a vivarium with no space to fly at all?! the geckos look extremely skinny and the meerkat - which is a very social animal and in wild would live on miles or territory land is kept in miniature vivarium on it's own. Im so bloody mad right now!

    Absolutely disgusting, I saw several animals in there that should never be in a pet store. The groundhogs were losing their minds and the frogs didn't even have enough room to turn around. Some of the birds were in fucking aquariums, birds fly and perch, not walk around on wood chips like hamsters. The worst part is, I'll bet 75% of the animals in there don't get sold for a VERY long time, who walks into a pet shop open minded to buying a fucking meerkat, bullfrog, squirrel or a groundhog. The twisted people who do this need to be doused in gasoline and have a match flicked at them, heartbreaking.

      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
      @iiisopod 10 років тому

      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
      @SolitaryEngel 10 років тому

      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
      @iiisopod 10 років тому

      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.

    All the people talking shit in the comments about how they feel bad for the animals, and how bad off they are, almost every animal in this video looks to be in amazing condition compared to what you typically see in pet store, a few of the cages could be bigger, but most are of a decent, or greater size, the animals are of good weight, and health, the reptiles do not have any visible stuck shed, also
    I must add these are both the cleanest animals, and cages I have ever seen in a pet store. This place get my stamp of approval, I just wish I could say the same for our American pet stores.

    • @staticcharm3808

      @calliejet4499 10 років тому +1

      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! That is not a happy animal that is an extremely bored animal. It has nothing to do with it being an asian pet store I don't approve of any pet stores ANYWHERE

  • @ataintedfriend
    @ataintedfriend 9 років тому +33

    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.

In America you can get tigers, lions, crocodiles, giant monitor lizards and primates that people just can't look after. ANYTHING you think of. It's for sale, with no proof of the quality of the home you'll provide.

      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. :)
