YOUKNOWMYNAME No he's not. 🙄 Do some actual digging

[@goodiegoodygumdrops]

Aaron Sinclair Exactly. @antletruth411 on Instagram. Exposes Doc well! "Once big cats grow too large for cub handling, Antle dumps many at other substandard facilities and/or warehouses them at his own location in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. During a behind-the-scenes tour at Antle’s facility, the HSUS investigator saw dozens of adult tigers kept in cramped, reconfigured horse stalls with cement floors. A double-wide stall contained 13 two-year-old tigers, while the rest of the stalls each contained one to four mature tigers. He also said that he normally euthanizes white tigers who are born cross-eyed. Crossed eyes is a common hereditary defect in white tigers, who must be extensively inbred to produce white fur, blue eyes, and chocolate stripes. In 2016, Antle attempted to expand his network internationally by applying for a permit to export 18 tigers to Mexico for filming and a breeding operation. The HSUS and Humane Society International filed successful legal comments in opposition, asserting to U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service that the proposal would violate federal law."

I understand that it wasn't the focus of the documentary, but imo the abuse of the animals should have been acknowledged more throughout the episodes. Could have gotten professional zoologists in to give some facts and make it more informative in that regard.

[@Netherlands031]

This, Netflix often makes documentaries where they only let the involved parties speak. But then what viewers believe comes down to who can talk better. I'd love for an independent expert to comment on how Joe and Carole are keeping the tigers.

[@kias7791]

Phina yes!!!!!

[@readmore8740]

These idiots were shooting trees too. :/

[@jamessullivan4391]

Phina: I am not jabbing here at all, rather I have a little different take on this. Here goes... the documentary was perfect the way it was presented. I do not think an animal rights or abuse perspective would have been effective. It would have come off as preachy and that turns people off. You don't want Michael Moore on this kind of project. Instead, the greed, insanity and criminality made the case for the poor animals, albeit vicariously, that much more effective. The directors and producers were right in following the story, not creating it. We have all seen documentaries that want to illicit shame in its audience but seldom do they make us actually have to pause and think. That's all. Take care!

[@Elladajosie]

@@jamessullivan4391 Thanks for your take on it- I definitely agree that a documentary on the abuse the big cats go through would not get anywhere near as much attention. I just wish scientific facts were thrown in more often to counter the outlandish opinions of the characters. A few friends of mine came away confused about the whole situation and condemning animal sanctuaries after watching. But as you said I think it got people thinking about the situation, which is certainly a plus. Take care as well!

[@anitaknight3915]

[@emmaphilo4049]

Because some people are harmed in the process. One lost an arm, another died, it's not just funny. The animals are abused too.

[@anitaknight3915]

@@emmaphilo4049I understand. I'm not laughing at that or amused by the treatment of animals. It's obvious those animals were used for greed and profit not taken care of. I'm talking about exotic Joe's personality, music, and the portrayal of Carole was hilarious. Don't take my comment or meaning out of context. Most of those ppl I think were corrupt, unethical, narcissistic, and mistreated those beautiful tigers. I don't condone that.

[@ApolloVIIIYouAreGoForTLI]

"If someone wanted the Tigers to eat Him they'd cover the shoes in Sardine Oil" - Carol Baskin So I was shocked by that lapse in her judgment and I'm surprised the filmmakers didn't pursue that more......Why is no one talking about this???? It's near the scene where Joe is almost eaten by the two Tigers, Then it cuts to others such as Carol discussing the conspiracy Joe had lamented to anyone and everyone (He claims a cologne was planted on his shoes to attract the tigers).

[@ohsylviaaahgrace2225]

She also corrected herself in the beginning of that sentence. She said,” If I “ then corrected herself to “If someone “ #carolebaskinkilledherhusband

[@yuukichan12]

I mean, while I definitely think she killed her husband or, at the veeery least, was involved in some way, this was just a throwaway comment that I feel is being blown out of proportion. Cats would obviously be more inclined to want to eat fish oil covered shoes than nibble on a meal smellin like Calvin Klein. Realistically, if she had anything to do with her husbands death (...which she 100% did *ahem* allegedly), something so messy wouldn't be her go to aaand there would be no need to go through the trouble of hiding his body as she could just play ot off as some "horrible accident"

[@Bassistking]

It’s simple really. The cats were exposed to old boots as a toy to gnaw on, and so when Joe Exotic was in the cage filming his campaign video, the tiger was basically thinking “Oh, a toy!” Embarrassed, Joe claimed cologne on his boots to detract his own stupid mistake.

[@dalmar210]

I was hoping he would ask , how do you know that ?

[@bernadettedwyer321]

Everyone is talking about it. Just not on this post. Your absolutely right. I just think they also put out some more information about the mystery of his disappearance... I’ve been pretty vocal on here to the point that I now have Howard Baskin making comments to me. 😂😂😂.. if I may direct you to a very good website with lots of information. Facts. Not fiction.

[@jamesowens972]

Thanks for exposing animal abuse in this format. Sensationalization is the best way to shine the most light on the true topic. If the law doesn't change after this , we are all complicit.

[@theresa600]

I don't think exposing animal cruelty took the front seat here. The constant pacing in circles should have been mentioned as an abnormal behavior when any stimulation whatsoever is lacking, a comment on how tigers are solitary so feeding them in groups can lead to injuries. A tiger cub stuffed into luggage, minute-old Cubs separated from their mother by shoving a metal bar into the cage and people still somehow find Joe Exotic "nice guy" material. This is that kind of animal "love" where cruelty continues as soon as the cameras are off.

[@paulipaz]

​@@theresa600 sadly that's what disappointed me in the end. The issue that started their journey was thrown in the back seat with the back burner at the end. Waaaay, way, way in the back.

[@bernadettedwyer321]

Because they can't. It would shut down the major zoos in the US. This is what the act also would include. Many of these zoos do not have their big cat's in Cage's at all. They have them in a natural setting without a cage. Something that the public isn't told about when they are being told every zoo is bad.

[@paulipaz]

I don't know the details of the full Big Cat Public Safety bill but I do know that I would have liked for more of a push on further bans of such practices like the breeding, private ownership and the wildlife trade. I feel like all of this sensionalization could of at least brought people to more consciousness to the plight of these species, even if that wasn't the focus of the show. What can we do about it? I feel like the show didn't highlight that. People are now demonising Big Cat Rescue after seeing Carole on the show. It's like people are just talking about the scummy drama that went down with her and not the cats and other wildlife that's at stake or the fact that it's not just her that runs it. I was reading this the other day www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/blog/the-truth-about-tiger-king-and-cats-in-captivity/

[@bernadettedwyer321]

@@paulipaz I read the article as I do all information that people share. Interesting note.. you can become a member by paying for an accreditation.. a sponsorship will cost 25,000.00 .. that's a diamond sponsor.. which BCR is BTW.. and they also hosted the humane society conference. No doubt that helps to get the one sentence mention in that article.. but thanks. BCR was recently told that in order to keep their non profit status they need to donate to conservation. As they have been only giving the minimum. Hence the try out for virtual zoo tour's good luck with that. I suggest looking at Big Cat Rescue Watch for the information on her organization. Many file's to see what they are really doing. Not to mention the raising of rabbits to feed the big cats. Yes they raise rabbits and club them so they can't run and let them be eaten alive. So much for no kill facility. Where's PETA going to weigh in on that. Now they will have to since it's all being exposed. No amount of Caroles money or threats of suing everyone is going to stop her from being exposed this time. You can't silence everyone. Thanks again for sharing ❤️. It's clear that it was a totally unbaised article.. said no one..

[@kennethfharkin]

If PETA is behind it I will ALWAYS question it. Those people are nuts. There are plenty of RESPONSIBLE zoos in America working hard to preserve these species and educate the public. I look at my nearest zoo, the Bronx Zoo, and look at the phenomenal work done to improve the areas for animals like tigers and gorillas compared to the first enclosures I saw back in the early 1980s. They have come a long way. Any legislation driven by PETA will shut down everything.

I don't have Netflix. I have not seen any of these episodes. And I am so saddened that this is what is considered entertainment now. Not one person is actually concerned about the health and well-being of the cats. This is all for a profit. And not one dime is being driven towards the rescue of these cats from this bizarre story. And these directors roll their eyes and talk about people without ethics. A documentary is supposed to tell a true story without salaciousness. Without swaying the viewers one way or the other. I can tell that this story hasn't been told without bias during this interview. It's trying to make you feel empathy for one character over the other. I have already read about the story of Joe and Carole years ago. And snippets I have seen of this piece of work series, interviews of the cast and characters, and now interview of the filmmakers. Utter garbage. Like it's said, you are what you eat. We are in a fast food lifestyle. All flash and no substance. Just like this Netflix series.

[@stevnated]

Yeah, unfortunately it's not a documentary about the fate of captive big cats in America. It's a documentary about some "interesting" people in America.

[@camogrrl]

Only on KZbin can someone who hasn’t seen a documentary have an opinion on it. The thing about the plight of the animals being downplayed is to create a deliberate void for the viewer to discover. They don’t tell you how to feel, you come across it yourself. As far as this leading onto personal responsibility and subsequent activism, it’s going to be people with energy and motivation who will push it forward, not your average joe watching KZbin. If you don’t get the hidden message in the show, you’re not the kind of person that would ever become an activist for animals. It’s weeding out the people who just watch for entertainment from those who will actually stand up in some way. I get that you might be angry that more people won’t do anything! But you can’t bully them into it. It they feel it, we need them to get moving, if not, oh well, you can still move yourself, you don’t need to wait for them. So watch the show and see how they allowed the audience space to be stirred without telling them what to think.

I would like to see a continuation of this docu series, maybe there you could concentrate a bit more on the animal abuse. There were some hints on the series already but it all got drowned in the personal drama. Maybe you could've shown the difference how the animals are being handled by Carol vs. Joe. And the text at the end didn't really help either. No call to action, no suggestions how one could maybe help the animals, like boycotting zoos which still allow petting young big cats.

There’s nothing toxic about masculinity. If you’re toxic you’re not masculine.

The thing about the plight of the animals being downplayed is to create a deliberate void for the viewer to discover. They don’t tell you how to feel, you come across it yourself. As far as this leading onto personal responsibility and subsequent activism, it’s going to be people with energy and motivation who will push it forward, not your average joe watching KZbin. If you don’t get the hidden message in the show, you’re not the kind of person that would ever become an activist for animals. It’s weeding out the people who just watch for entertainment from those who will actually stand up in some way. I get that you might be angry that more people won’t do anything! But you can’t bully them into it. It they feel it, we need them to get moving, if not, oh well, you can still move yourself, you don’t need to wait for them. So watch the show and see how they allowed the audience space to be stirred without telling them what to think.

[@stephenmcdonagh2795]

I have to question the stupid practice of breeding Ligers. These animals don't look impressive- just big, and they couldn't survive in the wild. The male tiger has the growth restricting gene, whereas it's the female lion that has the growth restricting gene- this is why Tigons are no different in size- but often look like overgrown domesticated Ginger Tom Cats. Breeding Ligers is like breeding an animal for its arthritic properties.

Hello, there are not so many tigers in captivity in USA. There´s less than 5000. With all AZA ZOOs, Sanctuaries and Roadside zoos included.

[@crystalwilson8022]

That's 4800 more than there needs to be in captivity.

[@goodiegoodygumdrops]

John Boyd Ehhh. The U.S. actually has NO idea how many there are here. Our policies are shit. So much so, that other countries literally laugh at us. And the roadside zoos and backyard breeders ARE the problem. Don't believe these breeders when they say there "aren't that many" or there "isn't a black market for them in the U.S." because *that* is a lie.

Okay, I don't want to sound like a hater, because I LOVE when men wear makeup... But this guys makeup is bugging me SO bad, like his eyeliner is GORGEOUS, but where's the rest of the face?? Honey, FRAME your face, throw some love to your eyebrows, do a little contour to enhance the natural beauty of your face! The look just feels SO incomplete, I can't stop staring. There's just SO much potential there!

Crystal Wilson you are supporting it by watching this video. You saw an advert, they got money from every advertisement you’ve seen in connection with tiger king. So you are in fact selling your view to this channel which directly supports this thing you refuse to support.
