Remember this story if you ever think it's a cute idea to hold a baby tiger for photos. Joe Exotic is by far not the only breeder doing this and I don't think that any legitimate operation that truly had animal care in mind would allow for this type of thing.
thankfully it's now illegal in the US to pet cubs so the breeding will stop thanks to Big Cat Rescue for working so hard to get the Big Cat Public Safety Act passed into law
@@Lithaldatwin Yes, it's a great step in the right direction. Unfortunately, a lot of U.S. tourists still engage in this kind of stuff abroad in countries where it's either legal or unregulated.
They wouldn't. That's why Big Cat Rescue - the very organization Joe Exotic tried to disparage - spent so many years trying to get BCPSA passed...and finally did! Now no one can privately own big cats (although I believe people who already did can keep them if they are registered and do not get more,) breed them, sell them, or do cub-handling operations with them.
For those wondering. If you’re visiting the Denver area. This sanctuary is open to the public and is about 45 minutes northeast of Denver. Tickets aren’t particularly cheap as this isn’t a zoo, but you’re helping a great cause! Hopefully they someday get to open their next refuge in the SE corner of the state!
100% echo this comment. You can see in the video that they have an elevated walkway you can use to walk through the facility. They put it up high so the animals are less likely to even know you are there. The founder of this shelter is an absolute hero. He helps animals from all over the world live natural lives in their optimal environments.
@@patrickwilliamson29 unfortunately, captive animals like this cannot survive in the wild due to never learning essential survival skills and also lack a natural fear of humans which makes them are vulnerable to poachers.
What are you talking about? They’re still in enclosures and they’re still being profited off of by the sanctuaries that own them now. Most even provide paid tours like zoos, and the owners are rich (or have VERY fine paychecks) Their situation is definitely better now but let’s not ignore reality.
@@prickly_procyonidswell they can’t exactly be freed entirely, since they lack basic survival skills and aren’t afraid of humans which could make them vulnerable to poaching… really this might be the best outcome for them.
He might not deserve to be in prison for the crime he was accused of, but he has definitely been the perpetrator of enough crimes and cruelty to animals to say that he belongs where he is.
I didn't watch any of the netflix series on this man as I knew I'd feel down watching someone exploit big cats. No one in any country should own these magnificent animals as "pets" let alone breed them. I'm glad the poor cats have good standard of life and care now.
Yes I couldn't bring myself to watch it either, I knew it just would have made me very angry & sad. Thank goodness they're living a better life now I agree.
I tried and I couldn’t even get through the first episode. They showed a cheetah at Doc Antle’s “zoo” that was so sedated it couldn’t walk and the handler told the children “he’s just sleepy” I was so sick to my stomach.
They were breeding them for because they made most of their profits from the cubs, which they could sell tickets to see and pet. Once an adult, the tiger is harder to transport and exhibit and less of a draw than the cubs, plus adults are more expensive to keep….leading to a preference for cubs that they did not have a good plan on how to care for later.

Thank you for Saving these precious creatures! All of them! Really liked this segment. The cages those tigers and lions were in is blatant cruelty. So happy they can now Be Free! 💝🐯🐘 ~
I’m so blessed that these tigers are at The Wild Animal Sanctuary! This place is so wonderful and a tiger paradise! 🐅 I’ve been here many times in the past and they’re in good hands 😊
Unfortunately, these animals can never live in the wild due to people exploiting these animals. Tiger King was just a facade he portrayed and really he was a narcissist looking for fame.
yup and all the cast are behind bars or on the run. Jeff Lowe is trying to start over but he has a warrant on him if he flees to Mexico we will get him. That leaves Baskin if we get her no more Tiger King.
The power of media and people can do extraordinary things. We need to rise up and fight for change to assure the rights of the earth, it’s animals and people
Used to live about a mile and a half from the sanctuary, used to visit it back before it was a huge facility. We could hear the animals at night all the time, it was amazing. The place has changed so much over the years and it’s a fun outing for the family.
If you are ever in Colorado, go visit the Wild Animal Sanctuary. It's about 2 hours east of Denver. Bring your binoculars and plan to spend the day. Each animal has its own story of rescue. It will do wonders for your soul to see these animals who spent their entire lives in confinement, free to roam the 600 + acreage. They do NOT breed any animals, rather they rescue the animal from backyard breeders.
There's another guy called Blake's exotic it's he doesn't have the most dangerous animals like this guy does but he is overwhelming himself and he's not taking care of the animals like they need to be
I was so glad that these animals were rescued and taken to new home rescues that healed them and let them live their lives better than they were being treated by Joe. He is now living the live by the way he was treating them cats and other animals he had there
4 of the cats also went to The Wildcat Sanctuary- Alyssa the Liliger, Thor Jr the white tiger, and Aurora and Alana the white lion sisters. They are an incredible sanctuary who are one of the only sanctuaries who help smaller cats like asian leopard cats, bobcats, lynx, and servals. Check them out they are incredible
I actually went to the sanctuary a good number of the animals went to in CO, it’s a really good place that has visitors elevated to keep the animals less stressed and they have lots of space. Bless you Pat! ❤
There is one in eureka springs Arkansas too. Coolest place ever. You can even stay overnight. Listening to them roar under the night sky was the coolest experience ever
I am so grateful for this rescue mission. I wish people would have stopped to think WHY they could take those pictures with the baby tigers. Animals should never ever be exploited, let alone for profit.
I'm so thankful to all the legitimate sanctuary owners and staff across the country taking care of these abused animals. I'm glad the laws are changing so that these beautiful animals don't fall into evil hands (at least not as often).
The BICPSA (Big Cat Public Safety Act) was championed by Carole Baskin, the very woman that Tiger King let Joe Exotic slander. If not for Carole's tireless work, Joe Exotic would be allowed to keep his animals, and thousands more like him would be abusing tigers to make cub-petting profits.
Ive visted Wild Animal Sanctuary multiple times and they are SO GOOD. Please donate to them! The animals have so much room and freedom as well as a lot of enrichment. We got to watch them get meat popsicles once!
For anyone confused on why they aren’t in the wild instead of these enclosures it’s because these tigers could not hunt for food and would not be able to detect or defend themselves from danger. They were raised in cages only knowing that humans provided food. If they were to be let out into the wild they would starve to death or get killed by something else.
Awww Joe ! The roles have reversed 😂😂😂😂 ! You reap what you sow !!! I am so happy that that life is over for these animals and they can live in peace and be comfortable for the time that they have left ❤ thank you SIR !!!
So happy these majestic creatures get to live a happy life where they’re well cared for. As for Joe Exotic, now he gets to know what it feels like to be locked in a cage. When he’s sitting in his cell at night, that’s barely big enough for him to turn around in, maybe he’ll understand what those Tiger’s felt like for all those years. Even then, he’s still better off than the animals he ‘cared’ for, as he’s not stuck in a tiny cage 24 hours of the day, 7 days a week like those Tigers were.
This guy is definitely doing what’s best for these animals. The Wildcat Sanctuary here in SE Minnesota got some of those Puerto Rican rescues too, I think. They might have also gotten some of Joe’s cats, but I don’t remember. In any case, supporting their missions definitely supports these animals getting to live out their lives in the best way possible.

Wowwwww unbelievable how 1 man treated them like circus cats n another man restored there dignity n pride 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏👏👏Goddess this man n the sanctuary’s that do this great n positive work so we teach our children n allll respect Animals,
@@heathclark318 Yeah, cause if he sets them in the wild, they won't know how to survive on their own due to their upbringing, and they'll either starve or get killed by other predators. At least these cages have a lot more space so it's close enough to being in the wild without putting them at risk. AMAZING what you can learn when you actually educate yourself.
@@blackwidow5762 Its more to do with the hybridization of the cats here in the US, than big cats not being able to reacclimate to the wild. It has been done successfully with cats along with many other species... Again the more you know right lol Too many Zoos....
@@heathclark318In the right mindset some can be released back into the wild, but sometimes that cannot happen. This can be due to the animals behaviour or health (usually health conditions prevent this). Sanctuaries and reserves can protect animals who can’t go into the wild or who are endangered, they can also educate people about animals and why they are necessary for our existence and the balance of our world.
This wasn't the only sanctuary that received big cats from Tiger King's place. Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge in Arkansas rescued at least 13 big cats from there.
This is so wonderful and makes me feel so happy for the animals, they look healthy and happy ( maybe a bit chubby??). I felt so horribly for the animals in tiger king, but this is just the best to see!
I refused to watch tiger king because I figured the treatment of the tigers was about what was described here. I'm happy these tigers can have a better life.
Aawww, yyaayy 😊 I was wandering whatever came of those poor tigers and big cats that he had!!! I'm so glad they gotta happy ending and are living their best life!!!!! They look so much better and healthier!!!!

Illegal in Europe. No private person can have exotic animals.

Would absolutely pay the fee, if I'm ever in the area!
Sounds like a high fee is a good idea, after all, its not a zoo.

Yeah, I am not surprised that the tickets would be pricey, as that nice set-up has to cost a LOT, as does feeding the collective tigers.
I've been a few times and it's so worth it. So many more animals than just lions, tigers and bears.
So glad they can live a free life. Big cats or any big animal are not supposed to live in a cage. That’s abuse.
Small ajlnimals either remember!
They're still in a cage, just a slightly bigger one

I used to feel sorry for Joe. Now I feel he’s living the life he provided for his tigers.
That’s karma for ya
You felt sorry for that guy? 👀
@@stonewal316 lol originally I did. Not anymore.
He might not deserve to be in prison for the crime he was accused of, but he has definitely been the perpetrator of enough crimes and cruelty to animals to say that he belongs where he is.
Joe actually makes that same observation at the end of the series, if I remember correctly.
Don't free joe. Keep him lock up for animal cruelty.
The guy that came after him, Jeff Lowe is a muppet aswell
Joe was apparently so convinced Trump would pardon him that he (or a supporter) had a rented limo waiting for him outside the jail. He really did.
He was charged with 17 counts of federal animal abuse. He is not going anywhere any time soon.

I did and couldn't stop watching the train wreck. It surprisingly wasn't about the animals much in the show. Definitely f-ed up dramas.
He is a depraved animal abuser and exploited. So glad and GRATEFUL they were rescued. Thank you
Love hearing that something positive came out of the whole Tiger King mess.
Joe Exotic needs to be never allowed to have animals of any kind ever again
I thought he died lol

Those tigers are breathtaking. 😮😮😮😮😊😊😊😊❤❤❤
This is a beautiful life for them. Room to roam they can make they’re own decisions. This man is amazing.

Wonderful rescue story, thank you for your service 60 minutes. Congratulations to the successful recues and sanctuary teams
Its still so heartbreaking there’s more of these animals behind fences, even in a sanctuary, than there are in the wild

The "power of media" provided the fame/power that Joe Exotic was seeking, and enabled him to treat these animals the way that he did...just saying...
