He ran for presidency in the US last 2016 and then governor of Oklahoma. I never know much about the exotic animals industry and that the U.S. (some states) allows regular people to keep exotic animals as pets. Right now Joe Exotic is behind bars because he hired a murder for hire person to kill his archenemy in the exotic animals business (which didn't pan out). It seems fun in Oklahoma actually. Also I've just seen ep 5, holy crap Travis' suicide was caught on tape. It looks like they've started doing this docu since 2012 (?) and only released it now since Joe is behind bars?

The episode where Travis shot himself in front of that guy was incredibly shocking. Then they go right back into pure insanity.

When the guy did the interview from his flipping bathtub, I was dead

Got to watch it for the entertainment factors alone

What else can we expect from tigers? They're not supposed to be kept as pets and yet here are people keeping them as pets AND profiteering off them. They're nuts! Get a cat or a dog or a bird or a rabbit people!

Wait, what ep was this? I was horrified watching that. We don't see it but the campaign manager's reaction and that flicker of light going off from the gunshot is enough horror to live through. Also that ep where the tiger bit on Joe's foot and the tiger was dragging that foot around and no one was helping him. LMAOOOO. By that point I was already unfazed.

Wow, hahaha

They're absolute idiots. They don't even care about them, tbh, they just see them as a status symbol.

Sure there are times these tigers are okay-ish especially when they're full and properly fed but they're not supposed to be pets or kept in a zoo. And this isn't even the only thing wrong with these people. Joe apparently has this cult-like environment in his zoo where employees are not allowed to visit their families (they live in the zoo and the docu showed the living conditions of the employees and it was bad).

Exactly! They know that the presence of tigers will make people come and take a photo and they're profiteering off that. The docu also showed them deliberately separating the new born baby infant from the mother because they'll feed it and then use the baby to have people take photos with them. It's disgusting.

Completely immoral. They're living creatures, not toys.
