There are more tigers in captivity in America than there are in the wild in the whole world, we’re told in this incredible seven part Netflix original documentary. But don’t expect a solemn series about conservation. What starts out as the story of an escalating feud between an Oklahoma man and a Florida woman who both love big cats, becomes a more sordid and surprising expose of an industry that allows scummy men to use endangered species as commodities to wrangle sex, money, and power. Tiger King is absolutely one of the best documentaries that has landed on Netflix in a while, with each episode bringing incredible twists. The fact that the protagonist of the series insisted on filming so much of his life anyway is a massive bonus for filmmakers Eric Goode and Rebecca Chaiklin. A character piece focusing on several larger than life players, a story...

The subject of Netflix's new docuseries Tiger King, Joe Exotic, or Joseph Maldonado-Passage, built a colorful zoo empire at the Garold Wayne Exotic Animal Memorial Park, profiting off of animals that he had bred.

So where is the infamous Joe Exotic now? Long story short, he's in jail.
First, a little context. Over his career as a zookeeper, Maldonado-Passage developed a collection that exceeded a thousand creatures. Along with his animals, he fostered a larger-than-life personality with his blond mullet and off-color jokes on YouTube. He had many run-ins in the animal-rights community, including a $25,000 fine from the Us Department of Agriculture for...

In the upcoming limited series Tiger King, Netflix fuses its popular true-crime and wildlife documentary genres, following the exploits of a colorful zoo owner. The project shines a spotlight on the personality Joe Exotic, aka Joseph Maldonado-Passage, a gay, gun-wielding polygamist who bred big cats and was convicted of hiring people to kill his most outspoken critic.
As wild as this may all sound, it's entirely based on a true story.
Maldonado-Passage was born in rural Kansas as Joseph Schreibvogel. Early in his life, he moved to Texas, where he became a police officer in Eastvale. His younger years were just as turbulent as his later ones. One of his siblings had outed him to his father, who made him shake his hand and promise not to attend his funeral. After a suicide attempt, Maldonado-Passage moved to Florida...
