i've heard that IF kept as pets (which is hard enough, but there exist tamed fennecs) they are increddibly expensive (you'll need a 2 meter deep fence to keep in in the yard for instance)   and sometimes dificult (you need a exotic vet i think)

i personally wouldnt even think about taking one of them as a pet, fennecs belong in the wild

And Even if you do manage to get one if you want one, just make sure you dont have fish...Because No matter how cute and cuddly Fennecs look, They eat goldfish :snicker:

Fennecs as pets are illegal. In their home country/regions they are sold on the black market.

i've seen legit pet stores with them, and i noticed some articles on the legalisation on the animals... not that it mathers in any way, as i said, i wouldnt even think about getting one

The legality of owning a fennec varies by jurisdiction, as with many exotic pets.


Yes, they are legal here in the states. Though I don't know which ones.
