The head curator of Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge, Emily McCormack, discusses the Netflix show Tiger King with us and talks about what the producers left out. We also discuss what a real sanctuary is and issues with supporting facilities that allow petting of tiger cubs. Fair warning, we discuss some animal mistreatment so be prepared.
