‘Tigers of Texas documentary to feature In-Sync cats’

WATCH VIDEO: Big cats toy around with camera

Filmmaker Barry Stevenson has chosen to feature several big cats from In-Sync Exotics in Wylie in his new documentary, “Tigers of Texas.”

He recently placed a well-protected camera on the playground of the wildlife rescue center’s Tiger Country enclosure, to capture the tigers’ reactions when they discovered their “new toy.” This video shows what happened.

In-Sync Exotics Wildlife Rescue and Education Center, located at 3430 Skyview Drive in Wylie, is a 501(c) 3 organization dedicated to the rescue and care of abused, neglected, or unwanted exotic cats. There are now 60 exotic cats and one coatimundi calling In-Sync home. This includes two cheetahs, three exceptionally rare white lions, three white tigers, a golden tabby tiger, and a tiger cub.
