Illinois bans private ownership of dangerous exotic animals like tigers and bears for safety and welfare.
Illinois has enacted a ban on private ownership of dangerous and exotic animals such as tigers, bears, pandas, and big cats, citing public safety, animal welfare, and conservation.
The law prohibits keeping species requiring specialized care, large spaces, or professional handling, emphasizing that only accredited zoos and facilities can properly care for them.
Violations may result in legal penalties.
The move aims to counter risks posed by exotic pets, often glamorized in media, and reinforces that such animals are unsuitable for home environments.
