Everyone has seen their share of once-domestic cats who have left the litter-box behind in favor of an outdoor life.  Feral cats have made the transition easily.  They are natural predators and able to fend for themselves.  Other domesticated species seem, at first, to be less able to make it in the big, bad world.  But pet birds, farm animals, and even aquarium fish have been able to thrive in the wild in certain situations.  Here are some examples of domestic species that have unexpectedly made a life for themselves outside the cage.

Wild Pets by Jacqueline AdamsLooking for the perfect pet? Most people pick traditional four-footed friends, such as a cat or a dog. Others are tempted to go for one that's more exotic. With everything from squirrel-like Australian sugar gliders to Costa Rican zebra tarantulas available at some pet stores, turning your home into a zoo might sound easy. But experts warn that you should think twice before buying a rare or unusual creature as a pet. "People want something different, and they may think it's cool to carry a snake around their necks," says Beth Preiss, director of The Humane Society of the United States exotic pets campaign. "But it really isn't cool for the animals." Keeping exotic pets can also cause big problems for pet owners themselves. From: http://go-passport.grolier.com/

Over in the meadow,In the sand in the sunLived an old mother toadieAnd her little toadie one"Wink!" said the mother;"I wink!" said the one,So they winked and they blinkedIn the sand in the sun

Over in the meadow,Where the stream runs blueLived an old mother fishAnd her little fishes two"Swim!" said the mother;"We swim!" said the two,So they swam and they leapedWhere the stream runs blue

Over in the meadow,In a hole in a treeLived an old mother bluebirdAnd her little birdies three“Sing!” said the mother;“We sing!” said the threeSo they sang and were gladIn a hole in the tree

Over in the meadow, In the reeds on the shore Lived an old mother muskrat And her little ratties four “Dive!” said the mother; “We!” said the four So they dived and they burrowed In the reeds on the shore

In times of change learners inherit the earth; while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.
