, Maldonado-Passage was born Joseph Schreibvogel in rural Kansas, the son of farmers. In his youth, the family moved to Texas and Joe pursued a career in law enforcement, being named Sheriff of Eastvale, Texas in 1983. Most of his early exhibits were donations from people who no longer wanted to keep the animals as pets. In 2000, he received his first two tigers, which he named Tess and Tickles and began to breed.
