Dullsters
Inspired by the Dull Men’s Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This isn't an advice forum
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Zoo animals behave differently than animals in the wild.
Both types are wild animals, however zoo animals get a meal or two per day with minimal effort required, so of course you'll get a fat lazy tiger who does not particularly care to attack you.
Second point is that the tiger was raised by that zookeeper from birth, so yeah, the tiger trusts them, that does not mean that the tiger will trust you or anyone else like your neighbour's pet dog does.
You absolutely can adopt a racoon baby and raise it into a racoon who will act like a pet cat towards you but bite all your visitors. Some people specifically get a wild animal pet for that reason.
The raccoons also get bored really easily and need a lot of stimulation and are extremely curious, despite having a short attention span. All of which will result in them being very destructive to your stuff.
