Bongo Antelope
Bongo Antelope look horses are great in everything but everybody has a horse it's not like you're special if you really want to make your ranch something to be talked about you want to get an antelope and specifically the bongo antelope most famous for its stripy auburn coat and curled horns of course these animals are not small they tend to weigh anywhere between 500 and 900 pounds and as we've already established the bigger the animal the bigger the attack on your wallet and this one is far from cheap costing anywhere between seven thousand and nine thousand dollars just for one but hey it will definitely get people talking if nothing else they'll be like hey did you hear about how much phil paid for his bongo antelope that big dum-dum look i never said the discussion would be complimentary

Palm Cockatoo
Palm Cockatoo i don't know how much big bird would cost to adopt but i'm guessing that it would be in the millions if you don't have that much money but you still want to adopt a big bird let me introduce you to the palm cockatoo trying to get her to chew on a peanut so you should take it this bird is also known as the goliath cockatoo and that's obviously a reference to its size not how much money it demands although well you better have some cash saved these regal looking birds are most well known for their unique feather Mohawk as well as their intensely high maintenance personalities if they're ignored for too long they will start screaming and getting aggressive if taken care of they can live for up to 90 years so all of that known how much is it 16000 but at least you get 40 to 90 years out of it so probably a better investment than a tv actually that may not be true have you seen tv it's awesome.

Savannah Cat
Savannah Cat what's more important a car or a cat if you set a car i can't help you but if you said a cat well oh boy do i have the cat for you the savannah cat is not your average kitty and the price tag definitely reflects that this cat is huge weighing in at 20 to 25 pounds and it can cost an aspiring owner well over twenty thousand dollars for purchase alone the reason for that is purely about the animals popularity this is the most sought after companion animal in the world thanks to those dramatic looks and the fact that they don't really act like cats the savannah is most well known for its intelligent and loving temperament which is apparently more like that of a dog than your typical cat so i guess if you are going to spend 20 thousand dollars on a cat well you probably need to rethink your budget but this is a pretty good option.

Lavender Albino Ball Python
Lavender Albino Ball Python some people throw fistfuls of money for the chance to own a painting but some will pay anything to have an animal that is in its own way a work of art the lavender albino ball python is definitely that the snake is most recognizable for its beautiful appearance those yellow spots on its lavender skin along with its piercing and slightly frightening red eyes the snake is native to africa making it a very rare and sought after animal thanks to its genetically unique color mutation the orange on the top of his head is so incredible at one time in fact this snake was known as the most expensive pet in the world that's no longer true but an average price of forty thousand dollars is far from the cheapest but you know what you pay for the beauty and rarity and i think we can all accept that that's fair right.

The Water Camels
The Water Camels how much do you think a single camel costs however much you said you're probably way too low in the united arab emirates camel racing is a big deal and can raise a single camel's price by an unimaginable amount the camel's average price apparently starts at around fifty five thousand dollars which is already an unbelievable amount of money but if you're looking for a thoroughbred that price will skyrocket winning camels can sell for anywhere between five million dollars and ten million dollars on average though some have been known
to bring it up to 30 million dollars and
higher again these are camels not houses rich people they have some strange priorities friends in 2010 one enthusiastic camel racing fan paid over 7 million dollars to own just three camels i'm not here to judge anybody's decisions obviously but on this one well this is not good news to hear on hump day.

Capuchin Monkey
Capuchin Monkey it sounds like the setup to some kind of1980s arnold schwarzenegger buddy cop comedy but what if a police officer had a monkey sidekick that believe it or not was the thought of a police swat team in mesa arizona only you know they set out to make it a reality the team applied for a hundred thousand dollars from the us government to buy a capuchin monkey to train it to perform law enforcement duties so it would be a police monkey again that's a hundred thousand dollars to buy one monkey that could maybe operate as a law enforcement professional the application even suggested that the capuchin could be taught to use a two-way radio which would actually be kind of amazing if monkeys could you know speak now i'm kind of sad that arnold never actually made this movie it would have blown terminator out of.

Sir Lancelot Encore
Sir Lancelot Encore it's easy to assume that a common dog breed like the labrador is relatively inexpensive and you wouldn't be wrong to think that actuall but sir lancelot encore isn't your typical everyday labrador for one the dog is worth an eye-watering 16 million dollars
hey baby but as i said this is not your average run-of-the-mill labrador for one reason this little guy is the world's first successful clone dog so really you're not paying for a dog but for a piece of scientific history and also a dog oh and the dog's puppies because sir lancelot has a desire to continue his legacy so he fathered a couple of litters of his own i have no idea how much they're worth but i would guess there's still a few million each and again here i am no puppies no millions what's the point.

Miss Missy
Miss Missy there's another lesson that we've all come to learn during our time on earth beauty pageant winners can make a lot of money just by being pretty and being desired and that goes for all beauty pageant winners including miss missy a holstein cow who's basically the miss america of cows apparently miss missy's genetics are considered among farmers to be so impressive and desired that she's worth a lot of money how much is a lot you're asking well1.2 million dollars if you ask the people that paid money to purchase her the reason for that whopping fee has a lot more to do than just mere appearance miss missy produces around 50 more milk than the average cow meaning more profit for the farmers and if you know anything about well any industry whatsoever it's all about the profit that and milk.
Mastiff when looking at expensive pets there's one constant that we can rely on above all else the rarer the animal and the bigger it is the more painful it will be on your wallet that's especially true for the red purebred tibetan mastiff get ready for this one on average this dog sells for approximately 582 thousand dollars yeah over half a million and that's just on average these dogs are so rare that some have sold for over 1.5 million dollars yes that's one and a half million dollars for a single dog oh to have that much money the red purebred tibetan mastiff is worth that purely because of its rarity and size there aren't any other dogs in the world that are quite as special as this one and apparently rich people agree i mean i'm special too so where's my 1.5 million dollars rich people.

White Lion Cubs
White Lion Cubs if you're the kind of person who wants a pet that you can brag about on social media the white lion cub is likely very appealing to you however the price tag is pretty crazy you'd need to have a hundred and forty thousand dollars spare just to purchase one and then of course we haven't even begun to deal with the problem of what happens as the cub grows older because as we all know lions and humans well it's not necessarily like a disney movie but ultimately if you feel comfortable living with an animal that could possibly send you to another plane of existence and you have the money to make it happen who am i to tell you no i mean if you have a hundred and forty thousand dollars laying around you probably have more than enough to pay the lion off before it decides to attack probably red purebred Tibetan.

Black Horse
Black Horse if you happen to have a hundred thousand dollars laying around your house with nowhere to go let me solve that problem this is the arabian black horse easily one of the most expensive pets in the world and an incredible animal to boot this is an extremely powerful breed of horse most well known for the incredible love and affection it offers towards its owners and human friends so why is it so expensive you may be asking well the arabian black horse is one of the oldest breeds in the world and is most suited for endurance riding and equestrian sports which basically means that you're paying for a horse with a long genetic history of excellence and as we all know in this world excellence doesn't come cheap unless you buy it secondhand on craigslist but that's not really a great idea.
