Carole Baskin sells Joe Exotic's zoo, deal bans property from being a zoo for at least 100 years
Fox News
Carole Baskin has sold Joe Exotic's Oklahoma zoo properties. The "Tiger King" star required the new owners to agree to a deal prohibiting the land from being used as a zoo for at least 100 years.
Big Cat Rescue was awarded control over the animal park in Wynnewood by a judge in 2020, part of the settlement in her long-standing trademark lawsuit against Exotic, whose real name is Joseph Maldonado-Passage. The lawsuit was filed in 2011, long before "Tiger King" became the No. 1 show on Netflix and propelled both Exotic and Baskin to freakish stardom.More Related News
