KEENESBURG, Colo., March 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Ninety-one fortunate animals no longer suffer abuse and neglect at the hands of many of the characters featured in the 2020 Netflix docuseries "Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness," but rather, now enjoy lives in large-acreage, natural habitats at Colorado's Wild Animal Sanctuary.
As previously reported, 39 tigers and three black bears were rescued from Joseph "Joe Exotic" Maldonado-Passage in late 2017, the major player in the series, who is currently serving a 22-year sentence in federal prison on animal abuse and murder-for-hire charges.
