An animal rights group has urged producers not to use live animals in an adaption of Netflix documentary Tiger King (Netflix/PA)Animal rights campaigners have urged producers working on a TV drama adaption of Netflix’s breakout Tiger King documentary series not to use live animals. Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem And Madness explores the bizarre world of big cat breeding in the US. Peta (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) sent McKinnon and producers a letter saying the use of live animals on TV would undermine Tiger King’s work exposing private zoos. Oscar-winning actor Leto is another avowed fan of Exotic, who has proven to be the documentary’s breakout star. Leto photoshopped his own face on to a picture of Exotic and hosted a Tiger King viewing party on social media.
