Big Cat Rescue founder and “Tiger King” star Carole Baskin is not a fan of Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s new music video, “WAP.”
It’s not the raucous content of the video that has provoked Baskin’s ire, but the use of superimposed big cats that claims a statement from the incredible conservatist, a TMZ report revealed.

Baskin shared that she is worried about the music video that could inspire big cat ownership for the rich glamorous and impressive fans to dabble in the exotic pet market, which does not always have a happy ending from what she saw in her work line.
Some big cats die in storage when given to sanctuaries like breeding grounds, Baskin said in a statement provided to Fox News.
“No matter what you do, it’s always abusive to the cat and dangerous to the public,” she wrote.

In the 4-minute and 12-second “WAP” video, there are short pieces of what looks like orange and white tigers, such as leopards, walking or posing. The cats, however, do not seem to have actually been on the set. Baskin shared that she is liberated that the exotic cats are not present in the room with the two rappers.
“That being said, you have to pose a wildcat for a green screen to get that image and that does not happen in the wild,” Baskin wrote. ‘It can not happen in shrines like the uzes, where cats have a lot of space to avoid a green screen (or would shred it if access were granted and could die by eating it). That tells me that they are probably dealing with one of the big cat impimbs, probably even one of those featured in ‘Tiger King, Murder, Mayhem and Madness’, which makes a profit of beating, shocking and hungry cats around them to make on stick. for a green screen in a studio. That’s never good for the cat. ”

At present, there is no evidence of animal abuse related to the music video. There is also no notable preservation promotion for the snakes used in the video.
Neither representatives of Cardi B nor Megan Thee Stallion responded immediately to Fox News’ request for comment.

It’s also not the first time big cats have been used in a rap video. Cardi B in particular had a cheetah in her 2017 hit, “Bodak Yellow,” and was reportedly attacked by the beast in Dubai, according to director Picture Perfect via Genius – a website for music news and lyrical annotation.

The 27-year-old rapper is also a fan of Joe Exotic, aka the Tiger King, who is currently serving a 22-year prison sentence for attempting to murder Baskin. She tweeted in March that she would start a GoFundMe to free Joe Exotic, but later backtracked on her statements, claiming she was only joking.
