While we all know why Joe Exotic has mugshots, what did Jeff Lowe do to have trouble with the law? According to Fox5 Las Vegas, Lowe faced several charges for a tiger cub party bus business he ran in the valley. The bus would pick up customers along the Las Vegas Strip and take clients to a place where they could play with wild animal cubs.
According to Fox5 Las Vegas in 2018, “Lowe faced one charge of doing business without a license and three counts of having no license or permit for wild and farm animals.” However, Lowe didn’t appear in the “Las Vegas Municipal Court for the charges” and so the court issued warrants for him.
This issue came forward because someone tipped off animal control after seeing the state of the tiger cubs who were being used as part of Lowe’s party bus business. According to Las Vegas news KTNV, the baby tigers were severely underweight, suffering from diarrhea, had urinary tract infections due to fecal contamination as well as Giardia, which can be transmitted to humans. Vet reports also stipulated that the tiger cubs had pancreatic conditions that would require lifelong treatment.
