As of December 2013, Snow Fox was the world’s most expensive pet but he wasn’t actually a pet at all; he was a real, living animal that cost around $104 million. The company that produced him didn’t earn any money off of their creation and they weren’t able to sell their product after Snow Fox was bought out.
