Tiger King, the seven-part docu-series on Netflix has quickly gone viral only a few days after its release. The documentary tells the story of Joe Exotic, an animal breeder who runs a huge roadside zoo in Oklahoma, housing a huge number of tigers, and other animals and the rivaly between him and local animal rights activist, Carole Baskin.
Ultimately, Tiger King prompts discussions surrounding exotic animal breeding in America. Should animals be kept in cages? Should they interact with humans? What gives us the right to interact with them?
Hold that thought, because here are some of the best tweets that’ll immediately convince you to press play (and get your mind off everything that’s happening in the world right now) including reactions from Jared Leto, Sam Smith, Kim Kardashian and Cardi B (who btw, is considering setting up a Go Fund Me page in an attempt to free Joe Exotic from prison.)Â
Has anyone seen Tiger King on Netflix?!?! It is crazy!!!!
