Michael Jackson’s legacy is already doubtful sufficient — and now one other new documentary has unearthed but extra skeletons from his closet. And never human ones.
A brand new ITV doc, Seek for Michael Jackson’s Zoo, will cowl a side of the King of Pop’s eccentricity usually neglected among the many extra salacious: the menagerie of animals he stored at his Neverland property.

Among the many horror tales about MJ’s animals contains many pets passing away prematurely, “with two giraffes dying in a hearth and one other from a damaged neck,” per The Solar. He apparently let youngsters hurl rocks at his lion Kimber and stored elephants chained by their legs in small enclosures. He additionally allowed friends to proceed petting the giraffes even after one in all them attacked an grownup and little one.
McManus, who herself was attacked by the singer’s two orangutans and bitten by his untrained chimp Max, mentioned her boss considered himself as a “real-life Physician Doolittle.” She defined:
“Michael mentioned he was an animal lover, however many animals had been poorly handled. The zoo shouldn’t have been there as a result of nobody ever actually correctly taken care of the animals and all the workers had been at risk. I’m shocked nobody bought significantly injured or attacked.”
Individuals apparently did get attacked, as we’ll see in a second. We consider she means nobody bought “significantly” attacked — as in killed or maimed. She continued:
“Michael ought to by no means have been allowed to have stored these animals. It breaks my coronary heart to consider all of the cruelty. Animals died and disappeared on a regular basis at Neverland, however unusually it was thought of regular. Nobody appeared to research or ask questions.”
Yikes.
So yeah, bear in mind these assaults we talked about? In a single alarming incident, McManus recalled:
“At some point a safety crew sped throughout the property to choose me up from cleansing the film theatre in a small white pickup truck. They instructed me I needed to get to Michael’s room instantly as he was asking for me, however they didn’t know for what purpose. They raced again to the home, I bumped into his personal chambers and noticed Michael sat on the right-hand aspect of his mattress, trying livid. One in every of his little one mates was sat there subsequent to him, trying scared and nervous with blood trickling down his face.”
She continued:
“Michael sternly mentioned: ‘We couldn’t discover you… I would like you to go discover some antiseptic and a band-aid as one of many chimps has bitten him.’ The boy, his eyes watering, mentioned nothing, however his face was swelling up. He seemed in utter shock and trauma. Michael turned to him and raged: ‘I instructed you to not tease the chimp.’ I ran to a walk-in pantry for medical provides and handed him what lotions we had, bandages and Michael cleaned him up on his personal. It was not spoken about ever once more.”
If we would have liked any extra proof that the Thriller artist was unconcerned in regards to the security and nicely being of his little one guests…
The ex-employee added:
“Quickly after that have, all of the workers had been despatched to a health care provider’s workplace in Solvang to get tetanus photographs. We had been instructed it was for our security with the animals.”
That wasn’t Adrian’s solely terrible story. She shared:
“On one other event, I used to be out by the merry-go-round journey behind the primary home. Me and one other maid on a break, went over to see them with their coach. Max ran as much as me, knelt down a bit of and caught his head below my skirt. I panicked and requested ‘Who taught him that?’ It felt like he had been skilled to try this transfer, however the handler simply laughed at me. Then Max ran off and performed on the merry-go-round.”
SO creepy!

Adrian admitted:
“Animal encounters going fallacious can be handled like a joke and gossip by workers, somewhat than truly critical issues.”
Yeah, these are some fairly rattling critical issues. It seems like a horrible setting for the animals and the friends. MJ actually bought away with a number of unsettling conduct throughout his lifetime…
