Joe is a complete nut-case and should have been locked up in a mental ward.
I have worked most of my adult life in the exotic animal care community, and/or on the research side of things, and have well over two decades of dealings (mostly indirect, thank Heaven) with most of the major players, and the *ONLY* positive thing that I have to say about Joe Exotic is that, as sleazy as he is, Carole Baskin is far, FAR worse.
She’s also at least ten times smarter and more cunning than Joe will ever be, and Joe had *no* idea just how far out of his league he was in deciding to take Carole on.
Yeah, and Joe Exotic is pretty bad, too.
