What scares the heck out of me are people who try to keep dangerous wild animals as quisi pets. Your just asking for trouble at some point.
The ironic part is everyone is scared of gorillas which are probable the most peacefull & gentle of the primates and most think of chimps as cute funny humanized monkeys.
Several years ago, my sister in Southern California had a neighbor with a pet ocelot. For those not familiar , they are the smallest jungle cat. I don't know how big they get, maybe 40-45 lbs. It is illeagle to have one as a pet now, but at the time, it was a new thing and there was nothing to prohibit having one as a pet. They look sort of like a little jaguar, absolutely beautiful coat and a cute , lovable little kitty face. Actually, they are lovable as a little kitty in most ways and as smart as they get.
However, they have a serious case of wild instincts and when the neighbor on the other sides doberman wouldn't stop barking, the cute little ocelot hopped over the fence and promptly bit his throat out, and then hopped the fence back home and took a nap. He was taken away to Kitty Island (a place where kittys who do stuff like that have to go).
An ocelot is so fast it could do the same thing to a human in the blink of an eye. They intinctively go for the quick kill of the throat and when hit just right , you bleed out in seconds. If it weren't declawed they could tear you to shreds just playing kitty games.
