Most eco friendly pet...

Mirmar

Curious about what is the most eco friendly pet?

It is apparently the tortoise, it gets 37 eco points out of possible 40.

Dogs and horses are the worst of all.

Exactly. A tortoise is not a pet, it is an animal that shares your garden.

I'm surprised that dogs are extremely close to a horse. I would have expected a horse to be a lot worse considering how much care and space they require.

They do make biodegradable ones in modern days you know 🙂

Makes sense. It is extremely weird how people are required to pick up their dog's waste but it's not a problem for horse riders to ignore it when they ride on public roads.

You can still interact in some way with a tortoise though, maybe not much emotional bonding but something.

On the other hand, fish I really don't get at all. They just seem like a lot of tank cleaning for very little reward at all.

People say watching fish is relaxing and calming.

Apparently yes, that's the reason that Lloyds of doctors and dentists waiting rooms have them.

I think they are sometimes interesting to watch for a few minutes but if they are there all the time they just become kind of like wallpaper and you barely notice they are there..
