Baskin taking over ‘Tiger King’ rival’s zoo

OKLAHOMA — Hippie hypocrite Carole Baskin has delivered the final humiliation to her Tiger King nemesis Joe Exotic.

A federal judge has ruled that Baskin will soon be allowed to take over his Oklahoma roadside zoo.

According to the New York Post, a federal judge is allowing Baskin’s Tampa-based Big Cat Rescue control of the G.W. Exotic Animal Memorial Park in Wynnewood, Okla.

The judge determined the property was fraudulently transferred to Exotic’s mother, Shirley Schreibvogel. It was part of yet another Exotic scheme to avoid paying Baskin a $1-million trademark judgment.

Their epic catfight exploded into the public consciousness with the release of the Netflix docu-series, Tiger King, the most successful documentary in history.

For years, Baskin — a faux animal rights activist — targeted Exotic’s ramshackle zoo. He fought back with videos depicting Baskin feeding her missing husband to her tigers.

Last year, the mullet-haired big cat enthusiast was convicted of conspiring to murder Baskin after hiring a hitman. He’s serving a 22-year sentence in federal custody but there have been appeals to U.S. President Donald Trump to release the colourful impresario.

Courthouse News reports that Exotic’s mom, Schreibvogel, confessed in 2015 that “the zoo land was fraudulently transferred to her by Joe Maldonado (Exotic) in 2011 to avoid his creditors.”

Currently, the zoo is controlled by another Exotic antagonist: Jeff Lowe. He has been given 120 days to vacate the property and remove all of the animals.

The zoo had been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic but reopened to big crowds last month in the wake of the quarantine bingewtach sensation, Tiger King.

Animal rights group PETA says they want to make sure that the park is closed for good.

It may not be smooth sailing for Baskin either: Police in Florida have reopened the investigation into the 1997 disappearance of her wealthy husband.
