I've been to Big Cat Rescue in Tampa. Did not see Carole Baskin. The coloured shirt system just separates volunteers into the categories of cats they're allowed to handle; 600 lb tigers require more training to be around as they'll kill you a lot quicker than little savannah cats which are also on property. It's not a cult. Cages are deceiving large.
Bottom line, the entire Tiger King series was sensationalized garbage for the purpose of entertainment. Can't speak to Carole killing her husband, who knows... from my perspective the only thing that matters out of all of this is the plight of the cats, and they're doing just fine at BCR. It's funny how everybody pretends to all of a sudden be big cat experts having not ever heard of BCR or Joe Exotic prior to this series. By the end of the year, it'll go right back to nobody caring.
Just sucks that all anybody is talking about is Carole Baskin killing her husband, and not the fact that there are more captive tigers in the US than there are in the wild which is f'ing ridiculous.
