Who is Joe Exotic?
According to Chealsi Putman, the 57 year old Joe Exotic was not actually caring for his own animals like he claimed to do so and that there is also a darker side to him. Upon speaking to the DailyMailTV, the 31 year old Chealsi has alleged that the real-life persona of Joe Exotic is "100 times worse" and that she just wants people to know the true nature of her uncle who is not what he seems on TV.
Joe Exotic actually used to run the Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park located in Oklahoma right before he was sentenced to 22 years in prison due to 17 counts of animal cruelty and also for the murder-for-hire plot he had to dispose his nemesis, the animal rights activist known as Carole Baskin.
Joe has again and again denied these allegations but now his niece has claimed that he even froze dead tiger cubs in order to sell them to taxidermists. According to Chealsi, whose mother is the younger sister of Joe, Joe was actually a "good guy and genuinely cared for the animals," but things changed when he started to see them as a money-making machine.

Chealsi Putman's claims on her uncle
Chealsi Putman said that she had previously worked for Joe right between 1999 and 2017 doing a bunch of odd jobs for her uncle. She described their relationship as having ups and downs because she could not deal with him.
According to Chealsi Putman, her uncle Joe had been selling baby tigers illegally saying that "I've personally witnessed Joe spray a tiger with a fire extinguisher, not out of a safety or for a life saving reason, but because the tiger didn't react the way Joe had wanted it to."
Which she continued in stating that her uncle would rather take cash right under the table for a sale of the tiger or if someone had sent a check explaining that, "it would be made out to another person, or if the money was wired to a store, it would be in another person's name."
Joe still continues to deny these allegations including the fact that the sold any tiger tubs without the necessary paperwork. According to Chealsi, her uncle would have frozen at least 10 tiger cubs saying that she had "no idea what happened to them, they would just disappear."
