COMIC Andy Dick is a dead-ringer for Joe Exotic as he dresses up as Tiger King for his new project.
The comedian posed alongside actor Paris Dylan and filmmaker Mike Hermosa in what appears to be a parody of the popular Netflix documentary.

In one of the pics, they are stood around their “zoo”, with Paris playing John Finlay.
Then in another Andy is holding a house cat.
Fans were excited at the thought of the parody, with one person saying: “Omg please parody it. You’re perfect for it.”
Another added: “Andy i can’t wait to see this”, while a third said: “ANDY EXOTIC”.

A fourth said: “Wow!!! You’re the person for this, I’m absolutely convinced”.
The Tiger King documentary followed Joe Exotic and his captive big cats, as he feuds with fellow owner Carole Baskin.
Joe Exotic has come under fire for his treatment of the tigers, with zoo workers accusing him of gunning down hundreds of caged tigers.
Erik Cowie, the head zookeeper at the GW Exotic Animal Park in Oklahoma, told DailyMailTV: “Several of the big cats would have eaten him alive if given the chance.”

He added: “Joe would often brag about being in a cage with 16 tigers, but in reality it was more like two or three of them.
“I would take the mean ones out of the cage, the cats who didn’t like him.”
Cowie claimed Joe killed more than 100 tigers and referred to Joe as “all smoke and mirrors, he was all a show.”
And he suggested Joe didn’t spend enough time with the cats “to truly bond with them,” noting how one lion “would try to chew through the cage to get at him.”

Cowie told the Daily Mail he learned “mostly on not what to do” from Joe.
Joe and another zoo worker put down eight tigers in one day, Cowie claimed.
He said: “They euthanized them and had a veterinarian sign off on them with excuses like, they were too old, sick, etc.
“Most of the time a veterinarian wasn’t even around when things like that would happen, but he would write it down on a log, so he could be covered in case government inspectors wanted to check his books.”
