The Ultimate Guide and Galleria of Royal Pets

Just like their commoner counterparts-their subjects, people of other lands, etc.-Royals like animals, and keep them as pets. Granted, some of these animals are more unconventional-i.e. many royal families take claim to the Royal Zoo animals…take Great Britian or Monaco for example: In Great Britain, not only does the Sovereign take claim to her private animals such as dogs or horses, but to several exotic animals in the London Zoo. In Monaco, Prince Rainier started a zoo in 1954 that once held two hundred fifty animals that includes many animals including: elephants, an Arabian camel, exotic birds, a black panther, white tiger, hippopotamus, reptiles, primates, lemurs, among others.

Are the buckles on their shoes too tight, or loose enough to become unfastened, and thereby cause them to trip and suffer a sprained ankle, or worse? Of course, royal moms have a lot of assistance. The bodyguards are there, in the shadow of the royal kids' every step, and the nannies and cooks at the palace ensure no little high-born darlings are going to be underfed or neglected in anyway.  Of more pressing concern to the royal moms of Generation Z, perhaps, are things like texting or tweeting when they should be attending to the lessons. Bullying, too, is a potential, and much more serious problem. Just look at what happened to poor Princess Aiko of Japan! Aiko's uncle Akishino and his wife, Kiko, decided not to send their little son,...
