What Do A City Tiger and Alligator Do All Day?

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.
