With US elections behind us, it's time to talk about US presidents and their love for the animals! Most of the US presidents had regular pets like dogs & cats. But some of them had some strange animals too.
Apart from dogs, Calvin Coolidge possessed a goose, a donkey, a bobcat(a small wild cat), 2 lion cubs, a wallaby( a small kangaroo like marsupial), a raccoon, a black bear and a pygmy hippopotamus.
The "great" Theodore Roosevelt possessed 5 bears, snakes, lizards, a zebra, a hyena, a coyote, a badger, a lion and a raccoon which were kept in the White House!!
John Q. Adams had reportedly possessed an alligator and reared some silkworms. James Buchanan had reportedly boasted a herd of elephants and a pair of bald eagles. And, well, Martin Van Buren was contented with his two tiger cubs.
