Shooting Joe Exotic

This 90 min documentary was originally released April 5, 2021 on BBC and is now streaming on Peacock.

Louis Theroux from BBC filmed Joe Exotic in 2011 and had a lot of unseen footage. Carole and Howard filmed with him at Big Cat Rescue and at the GW Zoo in Oklahoma when they owned the property for this documentary.

The CONservation Game

This documentary premiered in August 2021 and is the winner of the Santa Barbara International Film Festival  Social Justice Award written by Michael Webber who also directed “The Elephant in the Living Room” in 2010.

This award winning documentary exposes the dark side of TV celebrity CONservationists and their secret connection to the exotic big cat trade.

This powerful film follows “celebrity conservationists” aka faux conservationists Jack Hanna, Dave Salmoni, Boone Smith and Jared Miller who bring tiger cubs onto television talk shows. They lie on TV about where the cubs come from and where they end up. This film tracks them down and catches them on film admitting their lies.

Since it’s release, many have come to realize what they have been told and seen on TV has been a lie. More and more people are learning the truth and demanding big cats no longer be bred for life in a cage and used by those seeking to exploit them.

This 2 hour documentary is available on Apple iTunes, Amazon Prime, Google Play and Vudu.

Make The Call of the Wild

The ultimate goal is to see all big cats living free in the wild.
