'It was wet. It was filthy. It was aggressive. I said, I'll take the racoon. But keeping exotic pets is cruel.' Wildside Exotic Rescue.
Lindsay McKenna's wildlife centre takes in exotic animals when owners can't cope. She and other experts fear the law is failing the very animals it is designed to protect.
Wildside Exotic Rescue - a centre near Ross-on-Wye that now houses animals from meerkats to mountain lions, mostly from UK homes.
Keeping such animals is not illegal - the Dangerous Wild Animals (DWA) Act 1976 permits private ownership with a licence from the council. But now experts, charities and even some owners are raising concerns that the act is failing the very animals it is designed to protect.

Pet parrots are about to have their social lives take off — with video dating.
A study has found that birds able to communicate across video calls may have benefited from making new feathered friends.
And when they wanted to have a new call they rang a bell to get their owner’s attention.? ?Animal-computer interaction specialists at universities in Scotland and America studied more than 1,000 hours of video observations involving 18 pet parrots over the course of three-months.
The birds involved earned how to call each other with the support of their human caretakers, who also took careful notes on their pets’ experiences.? ?The study was the first of its kind to offer animals the means to contact each other whenever they chose t.
It found the parrots engaged more regularly in social behaviour like preening, singing and play.
And those birds who made the most calls also received more calls suggesting that the study helped the birds become more social.
Their caretakers, drawn from volunteers in the USA, also reported improved bonding with their pets.
