“Following “Harry Potter”, there seems to be a strange fascination even among the urban middle classes for presenting their children with owls,” environment minister Jairam Ramesh said.
I personally just don’t know how to react to that. But poor ‘Hedwig’ (Harry’s snow-white owl) and poor Harry they've done nothing. I can understand the minister’s concern for the illegal domestication of owls however; my question is how many misguided viewers are there who purchase dogs, fish, birds or other animals after seeing them in films. We cannot generalize the notion otherwise, it gets a little loose. What about animal lovers who would not abandon animals: until death do they part.
Parents I’m sure are aware of what kind of animals that can be used for domestication and even if they have other unusual choices, they would not for certain nurture a dinosaur just because their kids saw it in “Jurassic Park
