Often too large or wild to be in the Big Bad's main quarters, the Pet is usually kept in a cage, cavern, dungeon, or any other secluded place. The Big Bad Pet's job is usually to guard the [[Supervillain Lair|Big Bad's lair]], or to viciously consume the hero once the latter is thrown in a [[Snake Pit|pit of death]]. It's usually too [[Dumb Muscle|dumb]] to actually be given orders, so it sort of serves as a [[Personal Mook]] for the villain. |

To elaborate, Big Bad Pets are, well, [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|big and bad]]. They usually are composed of [[Our Dragons Are Different|dragons]], [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent|snakes]], [[Sea Monster|sea monsters]], [[Our Giants Are Bigger|giants]], [[Panthera Awesome|lions]], [[Everything's Worse With Bears|bears]], [[Hell Hound|big hungry dogs]], [[Everything's Even Worse With Sharks|sharks]], [[Man-Eating Plant|giant man-eating plants]], and the [[Our Monsters Are Different|like]]. They're the creature version of [[The Dragon]], only usually [[Bigger Is Better|much larger]] and of [[Stupid Evil|savage nature]]. Thus, they usually don't get that much character other than growling about to frighten the protagonists. |
