Mr. Davis showed students exotic pets such as an iguana and tarantula as he discussed how much responsibility it takes to adequately care for them and other animals. For example, Mr. Davis told students how some pets can live for 50 years or more so he urged caution about owning one unless students are committed to caring for the pet for much of their lives.
