Stewart has a penchant for unique pets

While having a pig as a pet is not as common as a dog, some people still do have them. However, in the past, Stewart had even wilder and more interesting pets in his possession.

Interestingly, he had a pet monkey named Mojo as his pet at one point in time. Stewart would even bring Mojo over to the race track from time to time. Eventually, he was donated to the monkey exhibit at the Louisville Zoo.

Meanwhile, Smoke does have a couple of dogs and cats as his pets as well along with a foundation that works toward helping stray, sick as well as at-risk and endangered animals.
