Many things are bringing people together while they're staying put during the pandemic, including Netflix's Tiger King, a documentary that focuses on people who operate big cat facilities. The show centers on Joe Exotic, the former owner of a roadside zoo in Oklahoma, who is currently in federal prison for trying to hire a hit man to kill Carole Baskin, the founder and CEO of a big cat sanctuary in Florida. We asked the president of Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge in Eureka Springs to weigh in on the documentary.
