One of my boyfriends in high school had a 4 ft iguana that we used to take on walks in a nearby park. The little kids got a kick out of him, their parents...not so much.
I had a turtle that one of my chapter sisters gave to me. However, I found out that turtles are harder to care for than I imagined (more or less a problem with all exotic pets), so I gave him to a local herpetologist. Speedy moved from a large tank into his own pond with two females as company, so I imagine he's pretty happy right now (although he should be hibernating).
I want a raccoon or a skunk as a pet.
