Why do people have exotic pets?

Why do people get exotic pets like sugar gliders and other animals? Don't they know they are not domestic like dogs and cats and aren't use to confined space and human interaction? Do you think its wrong to have something other than a dog or cat etc.?Why do people have exotic pets?many animals, including sugar gliders (and reptiles which i keep) respond perfectly fine to captivity.

The animals that are for sale are (or atleast should be) mostly captive bred and so would not survive long in the wild.

As long as the owner can provide the animal with everything it needs to live a happy healthy life (correct and varied diet, plenty of space, possible companionship, healthcare, enrichment etc) then i see no problem with keeping them
