How to go full ‘Tiger King’ while stuck at home in the ‘Berra
Please tell me you’ve watched the masterpiece that is Netflix’s Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness.

So now that we’ve read and LOL’d at every meme on the known internet, tweeted our hearts out and taken Buzzfeed’s Which Tiger King character am I? quiz 18 million times (I always get the toothless first husband) – what’s next?
Here are our street-legal ways to go full Tiger King in your own Canberra castle (every man’s home is his castle after all) before you feed your housemates (aka children) to a tiger.
