Wow, what a variety of animals...Aww raccoons my mom would go nuts! Do zoos ever get there animals from auctions like this one? It sounds like an interesting place for a zoo to get new animals and maybe new bloodlines.

Wolves, foxs, monkeys, white lion cub. white tiger cub, crown crane, ostrichs, rheas, snakes,room full of house birds, hedge hogs, deer,swans, tent full of chickens,ducks,geese,turkeys,pigeon,rabbits.....wild goats and hogs. those are a few i have seen there plus those already posted rare cattle to ,like zebu the mini cattle

Don't you have to have like a license for some of those animals like a wolf or any big cat...I don't even see how you can sell them to people... I bet for whoever got the tiger or lion cub found out really quickly how expensive it would be to own one I am pretty sure food costs for one of those would be very expensive. I saw a guy who had a pet timber wolf one time at the beach...He said that it was ilegal to own it so it was registered as a german shepherd. He said it cost a lot of money feeding it. It had coarse black fur with peircing eyes. Also it was really shy especially when a lot of people were around it. When my friends tried to find out how he got it in the first place he said he didn't want to go into detail but they raised it from a pup. It was quite an interesting encounter. This auction really sounds amazing!

Oh yes, you have to have a license to buy them....just like some gamebirds you need a permit. The white tiger cub ..sold for 4,000.00


Depend on what you buy what type license you need. No big cats, bears, wolves over 35 lbs are sold.

Uh oh, I am on vacation that week. I want to go but now I am gonna have to start getting pens done and saving all my money. Do birds usually go for a fair decent price. I don't wannna make the trip if it is same prices I can buy off of the breeders.

I just may have to buy some more chickens just so I can get some more of them little wire cages.

I never miss the exotic auctions.
