Animal advocates are reminding New Yorkers that wild exotic animals are illegal in New York City, and pushing for them to be made illegal in the rest of the state.
As you’re walking along the boardwalk in Coney Island, you might see someone carrying a python, alligator or any other wild animals, it might seem like a cool idea to pay to have your picture taken with them, but animal advocates are reminding us wild animals are illegal in New York City and the treatment of the animals is considered inhumane and cruel.
Last Friday, a wallaby was confiscated from a man who was walking along the boardwalk with the adorable marsupial. Now, it is in the care of a wildlife rescue center in Suffolk County, Long Island. The man who owned the wild animal had been getting money from people on the Coney Island boardwalk who wanted pictures with it until he got busted by police.
