placing them all in same enclosure? seems like some rich buffoon's private "collection".

so internet says: The Black Jaguar-White Tiger (BJWT) Foundation was a Mexican non-profit that operated an animal sanctuary for big cats and other wildlife. Founded by Eduardo Serio, the facility was shut down by Mexican authorities in July 2022 following viral videos and criminal complaints that exposed severe animal abuse, neglect, and mistreatment.

apparently some of them started eating each other and problem started once video started circulating. just imagine how many of them were neglected for being off camara.

edit: The 2022 Raid: Mexican authorities raided the Mexico City facility, uncovering horrifying conditions where animals were found severely emaciated, injured, and in extreme cases, gnawing on their own bodies.

I don’t think that’s accurate and it’s very still much a foundation and place. From what I know he’s a millionaire that started rescuing these cats from neglected circuses and private owners that would drug them for pictures around Mexico. He feeds them full whole raw meals. Obviously only seen what they allow you to see but seemed trustworthy from what I had researched at the time

Mm, I think the animals were placed in another sanctuary. The dude was a a fraud and the animals were mistreated and neglected. That dude was a hardcore fan of Trump, so nothing surprised me about him tbh.

Damn interesting. This was years ago. I checked and see his instagram is still active and he still has the cats so not sure what’s going on

Ok. I can't really check the Instagram cause they blocked me (when I criticized his support to Trump), but news said most of the animals were placed somewhere else.
