MUMBAI: The CEO of Big Cat Rescue, Carole Baskin appeared for her first interaction after Netflix series Tiger King shot to fame and got pranked by two YouTubers into believing that she was being interviewed by The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon. Carole did not appear in Tiger King’s reunion show after reportedly having been upset over her portrayal in the show. She is also in the news for rumours that say she killed her ex-husband Don Lewis.
YouTube pranksters Josh Pieter and Archie Manners tricked Carole by downloading clips from actual Jimmy Fallon interviews and putting them into a soundboard on their iPad to gull Carole. Even though there was nothing new said in the interview, the fact that they pulled off the prank without getting caught is something.
Carole spoke about how Big Cat Rescue is coping during the pandemic. She revealed that she has been taking care of the cats even amidst the lockdown but she has had to let go of half of the staff at her sanctuary because of the loss of tourism.
'My husband and I live about five miles from the sanctuary and my daughter lives next door to it and so my daughter and I still come into the sanctuary every day because we have to take care of all of the big cats there. Unfortunately, due to the loss of tourism revenue, we had to let go of about half of our staff, and, thankfully, all of our animal care is been done by volunteers so the animals are still getting their daily care,' she said.
