Leicester City striker mentioned wanting a penguin or a giraffe as a pet. The former England international has also revealed he found out how to buy a giraffe.
However, his comments have brought a warning from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), who reminded the 35-year-old of how the sale of exotic pets can harm the animals.
