21 ‘Tiger King’ Zoom Backgrounds for Cool Cats & Kittens

There are two things getting me through these trying times, and those two things are Tiger King and Zoom. I spend my days working from home and bouncing from meeting to virtual meeting on Zoom, and my nights binge-watching Tiger King and wondering WTF happened to Carole Baskin’s husband. If you’re in the same boat—and I have a feeling you are—you won’t be able to resist these Tiger King Zoom backgrounds. Talk about the best of both worlds, am I right?

If you haven’t started playing around with filters and backgrounds on Zoom, I’m here to let you know that you’ve been seriously missing out. Nothing jazzes up a work e-meeting like a clever office-themed background, and similarly, nothing starts the party at your Zoom happy hour like a filter that gives off EDM rave vibes. Are there certain Zoom backgrounds that work for all occasions, you might ask? It just so happens that yes, there are. I can’t think of a time when I wouldn’t want to use one of the below Tiger King backgrounds, because they are all wonderful and special and guaranteed to start up some incredible conversations. I’ve included stills of Joe Exotic, Doc Antle, Carole Baskin, and of course tons of tigers—plus the throuple wedding, a restraining order, and a few other surprises.

Before you read on and select your fave Tiger King backgrounds from the 21 below, a gentle reminder that there are tons of animals in captivity that can use your support. If you want to help, consider donating to organizations like The Humane Society of the United States or the Animal Legal Defense Fund. Now, onto the Zoom backgrounds!
