You won't believe how expensive owning one of these 14 animals could cost! From cute chimpanzees to MIssy the cow in Canada! Subscribe to Hindered Thoughts http://goo.gl/d3U3RP 7.Japanese Stag Beetle - $90,000 Beetles are apparently incredibly popular pets in Japa. They’re easy to look after and take up relatively little space. The most prized beetle in Japan is the stag beetle because of its gigantic, fierce-looking mandibles; that resemble a deer's antler. They can grow up to 4.7 inches, and the largest are known as “Black Diamonds” for their smooth and shiny shells. Stag Beetles are so popular in Japan that they can be bought almost anywhere including train stations, with a starting price of just $10. The most expensive stag beetle in the world was sold for $90,000 in Japan because of its fiery red mandibles. The owner wished to remain anonymous out of fear of insect thieves who would try to steal his prized bug. 6.Ashera Cat - $125,000 The world’s most expensive kitty is also the world’s newest, exotic domestic feline. The new breed was allegedly a mix between the African Serval and the Asian Leopard cat, and a drop of domestic cat but DNA testing proved it was simply a strain of Savannah cat. A Savannah cat is a cross between a domestic cat and the serval, a medium-sized, large-eared wild African cat. With gorgeous leopard-like spots, the Savannah cat is known for its impressive leaping ability and can clear 8 foot with ease. 5. Lancelot Encore - $155,000 This entry proves there’s such a thing as too much money. Orlando couple and dangerously obsessive animal lovers Edgar and Nina Otto were distraught at the passing of their beloved Labrador Sir Lancelot. So they did what any reasonable couple would; they got over it and adopted one of the millions of dogs that need homes across America. Nah, I’m just kidding, they spent $155,000 getting Sir Lancelot cloned. The admittedly awesomely named Sir Lancelot Encore apparently retains the “essence” of his original, and the price was no issue. Mrs Otto stated 'I would've gone higher, I would have done anything at that point,' 4.Racing Pidgeons - $400,000 A Belgian Racing Pigeon named Bolt, after the world-famous runner Usain Bolt, set a record of his own for the world’s most expensive pigeon. The pigeon was part of a flock bred by world famous pigeon fancier (don’t laugh, that’s their official title!) Leo Heremans who sold his whole flock for a whopping $4 million. Nikolaas Gyselbrecht of pigeon auction site Pipa told Reuters: "A painting made by Picasso is worth more than one made by an unknown artist. It's the same with this pigeon.” 3.Missy the Cow - $1.2 million A Holstein cow from Alberta Canada, Missy, was bred by the renowned Morgan Farms. Missy has won more than a dozen major title including the hilariously over-the-top sounding Supreme Grand Champion Of All Breeds at the World Dairy Expo in Madison, Wisconsin. Missy is better treated than most humans and subsists on a diet of alfalfa and grass hay with wheat, barley grain, rolled oats, ground corn, soybeans and peas. 2.Tibetan Mastiff $1.5 Million (Big splash) Finally! A pet I can get behind. A highly independent and intelligent breed these big fluffy canines can be great companions and are loyal and protective. Their lion-like mane of hair and their humongous size makes them highly attractive and owning one has become a status symbol for affluent dog owners in China. A coal magnate from Northern China recently made world news by buying a red mastiff for $1.5 million. The dog, named Big Splash, weighs a ridiculous 286lb, about the same as a professional rugby player. 1.Horses - $16-60 Million Arguably not pets but I get to make the videos, and you don’t so whatever. One of the most expensive horses in the world was a Green Monkey, which definitely sounds like a contradiction but horses really get ridiculous names. Green Monkey was sold for an insane $16 million, the highest price ever for a horse sold at auction. That’s nothing on the even more ridiculously named Fusaichi Pegasus, who, in 2000, was sold for $60 million to an Irish breeder. Though he won the Kentucky Derby the same year, old Pegasus is generally considered to be a disappointment. He has managed to sire over 60 medal winning horses since so he’s not for the glue factory just yet.
