Tiger King is perhaps the most binge-able show Netflix has ever graced our screens with.It gives us an eye-opening insight into the captivity of big cats here in America.
The 7-part series retells the story of a war between a very flamboyant tiger owner named Joe Exotic and his enemy, a Florida-based animal activist named Carole Baskin.But it isn't just about the tigers and lions...
Who knew there was such a large cult of exotic animal hoarders in the US?
There was a lot of drama in the life of Joe Exotic...
But people seem to be forgetting that this is based on real-life...
And when Joe's life gradually began to spiral out of control, he landed himself into some deep trouble.Joe is an openly gay man...
And after this marriage tragically fell apart...
And last year, things took a turn for the worst.
His first charge was for conspiracy to murder.
And the second was for animal cruelty.
Most of us believe that this sentencing is more than reasonable.
But others aren't too convinced.

But these people may be a little disappointed...
Joe Exotic believes that he will be dead in a matter of months.
Now, I know some people are a little confused by this...
@TMZ he ain’t dead yet?— rhi☁️//aotd era (@rhi☁️//aotd era)1591603738.0
"My soul is dead."
"Stop sending me pictures of him having a party while I live this hell."
The letter is an incredibly bizarre read...
He then went on to claim that he isn't getting the correct medical treatment for his health conditions...
This sounds a little suspicious to me...
