We Bought a Zoo

Based on a true story, this is the tale of how a family used their life savings to buy a dilapidated zoo, stocked with 200 exotic animals, and set to close. Dad and the kids had to balance caring for his wife, who was dying of brain cancer, while dealing with escaped tigers, raising endangered animals, working with an eclectic skeleton crew and jumping through legal hoops to ready the zoo for a reopening.
