Don't Go Into the Long Grass

By Carol Hightshoe

Genetic Engineering and cloning leads to the development of a popular exotic pet business. However, some exotics are very limited and tightly controlled due to their dangerous nature. This just leads those who want one to take the risk and look outside official channels and go into the Long Grass to find the animal they want. But is it really worth the risk to own a velociraptor as a pet?
