TAMPA, Fla. (AP) The owners of a Florida-based sanctuary made famous by the Netflix docuseries, Tiger King, say they plan to move most of their big cats to an Arkansas facility and eventually sell their 67-acre (27-hectare) property.

Howard Baskin wrote in a post on Big Cat Rescues website that he and his wife, Carole Baskin, had entered into an agreement with Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge to move most of their big cats to the accredited sanctuary in Arkansas.

We have always said that our goal was to put ourselves out of business, meaning that there would be no big cats in need of rescue and no need for the sanctuary to exist, Howard Baskin wrote earlier this week in the post.
