Carole Baskin accuses Joe Exotic of being 'the little boy who cried wolf' after the Tiger King star reveals that he has "aggressive" prostate cancer.

Carole Baskin has said that she does not "believe a word" uttered by her long-time rival Joe Exotic after he revealed that he is battling "aggressive" prostate cancer.

In a post on social media, the 58-year-old Tiger King star - currently in prison for a plot to kill Baskin - begged for his release so that he could spend any remaining time he has with loved ones.

Exotic also suggested that Baskin 'will have a party' as a result of the news, but speaking to The Sun, she said that she doubts the news is even real.

"Joe has been claiming to be on death's door every year since I first heard of him in 2004," she told the newspaper.

"He's claimed to be dying of just about everything.

"He's the little boy who has cried wolf so long that I don't think anyone should believe a word he says."

Tiger King returns for its second season on Netflix later this month.
