He keeps them as personal pets. Zo! Media funds a breeding project dedicated to breeding a smaller, more docile version of the reculobutapus that could be marketed as a family pet and fashion statement. Reculobutapus Companions Most consider it dangerous to keep monsters as pets, but a few reckless collectors or nature enthusiasts do it anyway. It's difficult to tame and care for a reculobutapus, which weighs up to 2,100 pounds and needs 20 pounds of fresh meat per day to stay healthy. Hungry reculobutapuses regress quickly, forget their training, and carelessly devour their caregivers. However, undead creatures don't make good meals and can usually heal from a reculobutapus mauling, making the prospect of owning such a dangerous creature less daunting.
