Incredible program, VERY heartbreaking. To see the number of people associated with Animal Planet, participating in this, and Discovery Corp. bringing in these cats to entertain their employees discusses me. At the end, where Robert Irwin is on the Tonight Show, using animal that come from Grant Kemmerer, just breaks your heart in ways I didn't know possible.

Bring them all down!

Looking forward to seeing this next month. The animal industry is one that does need to evolve and make sure we are doing the best we can for the animals, as if we in the business/ industry aren't caring for them, how do we expect the average person on the street to actually care about them and their conservation?

The werid thing, was. I used to enjoy jack Hanna as a kid. This will be an interesting watch.

Thank you for this.

Thank you for what you do to help those animals

The Animalis Fabula Film Festival would like to showcase The Conservation Game - sent you an email.

I was so shocked by the ending. I definitely had higher expectations for Steve Irwin’s kids. This is one sad cycle. :( Hope the legislation gets passed and the cruelty starts to end for these exotic animals.

Excellent Documentary.!.

Can’t even watch this anywhere why make it then?

I've been an animal lover all of my life and I have never liked Jack Hanna. He is not helping animals, he is helping himself. No one who truly cares about animals would put them in the stressful situations he does to appear on television. The travel, the cages, the noise, the stress, the unfamiliar environments. Anyone who loves animals would not promote the breeding of animals to keep in cages or zoos, where they cannot roam, socialize, or act out their natural behaviors. No matter how big of an enclosure a wild animal has, it's still a cage and the animals learn that very quickly. Appearing with animals on TV does not teach other people to care for animals, it teaches people that its ok to keep wild animals in captivity. Anyone who is not looking past his smiling exterior and thinking about what the animals are experiencing and what is best for their welfare is not an animal lover. Jack Hanna puts his needs and celebrity before the welfare of the animals and that is not ok. Stop giving people like him praise as some sort of savior for animals. He is not doing what's best for them. He is adding to their suffering for his own prestige, profit, and career. I'm glad it's finally being talked about. Jack Hanna is a not good for the welfare of animals.

I just watched this documentary. It was sad. I can't believe that people can do this? These are endangered animals in the wild and abused animals in the US? Just so someone can get a selfie to post on twitter with a tiger? If you REALLY love big cats don't support this industry.

Oh a Peta doc dismissed.

Baskins ain't better than the other dude tbh, she's got nothing to do in here represented as a defender. I myself work in conservation, and the conditions in which those cats live? Their "habitats"? It's a joke..

Respectfully, this was one of the many mischaracterizations in the Tiger King series. The film is an independent documentary, and the Baskins have been leaders on the Big Cat Public Safety Act, and their goal is to end having big cats in cages and have no need for a sanctuary like theirs.

@@CargoFilmReleasing Respectfully, I work in conservation and when a big cat has to stick its head into a miniature cage barely fitting it to have access to a meager bowl of water and/or food, it's abuse. PERIOD. And those "feeding" cages still exist all over the place, they're in their ads and everything. The Baskins are doing this ALL only for money, fame and to pass as the saviors. Their "sanctuary" is a giant business leeching on volunteers. Start taking a little look at their profits which they are barely hiding. ANY sanctuary on this planet making this much money is NOT a sanctuary anymore but a tourist attraction and money maker. Being passes as an absolute victim surely did help that lady to propel herself... In comparison with the other crazy dude, they're only different in appearance, manners, method and name. But in in the end, it's the same devil. And I'll say again: When a big cat the size of a tiger has to stick its head through a small hole in order to have its whole head into a miniature cage, only in order to be able to have access to a water bowl or a food bowl (wont even mention what the overall posture does to them long term...)... it's abuse. Period. There's no debating it. Many big cats have better feeding conditions in circuses for crying out loud. IF you worked in conservation, actually, or with people who ACTUALLY work in the field, a simple single ad of the Baskins (floating all over youtube (lots of money for that ay?)) you would instantly see the many, many, many giant red flags with only a few glimpses at their "habitats", more accutarely cages. My two domestic cats have more space to run in my garden than those tigers do. Now, I hope next time you'll all do better rather than having someone as Baskins pose as a savior, just for her image and fame and yadi yadi yada when they are actually a gigantic part of the problem. (INFO: She has NO background in any kind of work with animals; NO background in animal behavior/biology; NO background in conservation. NOTHING and you're taking her as a saint of big cat conservation? All because she inherited a giant money machine from her husband's disappearance?) Folks passing as saviors when doing the exact opposing are really dangerous, especially when less informed persons trust them like this and give them EVEN MORE exposure. Get people actually working in the field, actually doing something, instead of leeches pretending they doing something when in reality they're abusing their cats (who keep on dropping like flies, by the way) It's like asking Seaworld to describe how they save Orcas. Unbelievable.

@@CargoFilmReleasing Oh, and PS: I went to her park, yes park not sanctuary, quite before the TV series even aired, I had no idea about this tiger king dude. Didn't stop me from crying a few times there. I've been lured by a friend herself lured in by the reputation of sanctuary. As both working in conservation, we thought we should give it a go, with its reputation and all. We stumbled onto HORRIFIC stuff. This place has no right to be called a sanctuary, and this woman with no background in the field whatsoever should never be allowed to work animals, seeing how they're treated there. It's not a sanctuary. It's an attraction. An overly expensive one where the animals are kept in horrific conditions. I mean hell, the enclosures are made from construction sites fences and that's it, not gonna bother further. Hell, a volunteer told me they had lost 12 cats in a single year? I'll leave you alone now, but now I hope you know what kind of devil you've just shown the world as a savior. It's exactly like telling the world Seaworld saves Orcas. What a sad joke.

@@highlordxeleth I've been to her accredited sanctuary as well. There was absolutely nothing wrong. The water bowls are elevated like that because otherwise, the cats will pee in them. That same system is used in sanctuaries all around the world. The holes are not tiny. They hardly have to stick their heads in. It is not hurting their posture. They have to bend way down to get water or food in the wild. If anything, an elevated water bowl (which is at their height) is better for their posture. But that also shows how little you know because their feeding plates are on the ground. They are not making money from the sanctuary. It is a nonprofit. Every donation goes right to caring for the cats. Carole is not making money from the cats, though she does have a small salary like the other paid staff members which does not come from cat funds. When they were open for tours, it was done in limited amounts each year and with only small groups. As a result of not having tours due to Covid-19, they are losing a million dollars a year. Sanctuaries all over the world use volunteers in the same way BCR does. The cages are made of 9 gauge cattle panel, which is stronger than the USDA requirements and stronger than the chainlink used in accredited zoos. The cats are in huge, natural cages (there are no such thing as enclosures). They most certainly do not live in horrific conditions. They rescue animals from horrific conditions. I also hope you realize that most people who start accredited sanctuaries do so without any formal education in wild animal care and do a fantastic job. I would also like to point out that she nearly lost the sanctuary a couple of times as a result of both the loss of her first husband and then the economic issues following 9/11. Carole also works with conservationists like Jim Sanderson. BCR also donates more money to in-situ conservation efforts each year than most accredited zoos do. And yes they often do lose more cats than you would expect. But that is not due to lack of care. They have the best care possible, with USDA-grade meat and vet care by expert vets in a state-of-the-art onsite hospital. They often take in the oldest and sickest cats because they are the sanctuary best equipped to care for those cats and their advanced needs. They have literally saved cats from the brink of death, such as Priya who arrived with a 20-pound hydrometra, and Aria who arrived in such severe condition they questioned whether or not to even try to save her. You didn't give one correct fact in your entire post, but pretty much said every counteracted lie told by Tiger King. There are countless zoologists who fully support BCR. There are people who left accredited zoos because of the horrible things they witnessed there and went and volunteered/worked at BCR because it is far superior.
