Joe Exotic, the ostentatious star of Netflix’s hit 2020 docuseries Tiger King, has long begged Donald Trump to free him from prison—but now he’s asking for a position in his next administration, too.

In a letter he sent to the president-elect, which he shared with RadarOnline, the former exotic animal park owner, who faces 12 more years in prison, admits he was “scared as hell” that Kamala Harris would win the presidency.

“A lot of people went to bat for you in 2021 who have been living in hell ever since then,” the former exotic animal park owner writes. “Everyone hopes you keep the promises you made during your campaign, which include pardoning everyone sooner than later in January 2025.”


Upon his release, Exotic wants to sign on to Trump’s administration as the Federal Fish and Wildlife Director, a position in which he hopes to bring about reform.

I pushed an old lady down the stairs last week. Please appoint me as an undersecretary of senior citizen affairs in your upcoming regime.

P.S. I love you."
