The Daily News tours the urban apartment zoo of Antoine Yates. the man behind such escapades as "these tiger-sized bite marks are from a dog" and "teaching the NYPD how to get a tiger out of a Harlem apartment." The Housing Authority has successfully evicted Yates from his five bedroom apartment (five?) and gave him time to clear out. The DN reports that it smelled like a rancid pet store. He tells the DN that he and Ming liked to watch movies (The Godfather, Carrie and The Exorcist), while Al the alligator stayed in a room that had a poster of Lil' Kim. That's what Gothamist likes in its animals: A healthy appreciation of pop culture.

how do i get me a five bedroom apartment? do i have to have wild animals if i get it?
wow, I can smell the stench through the photo
if you can afford a five bedroom apt., why are you chopping holes in the wall for "doors"? Or portholes, or whatever they are.
"I will fight to the end until we are together."
Hahahahahahahahhaha! That may be the funniest thing anyone in the history of the world has ever said...about a tiger.
I wanted some bizarre rainforest monkey to spring from a ceiling during the DN's visit, but no such luck.
The funniest thing ever said about a tiger was also uttered by Mr. Yates on the Today Show right after the tiger and aligator were evicted. Antoine said, "I believe Ming and I have a destination together."
Was the zebra painting to help the tiger feel more at home?
Was watching "UHF" on cable last night when the "Raul's Wild Kingdom" segment was on. Forgot how apropos it was for this particular story -- the apartment zoo. However, I do not believe Mr. Yates attempted to teach poodles how to fly.
