Subject: [Sndbox] Man Kept Tiger In
Public Housing
Ok, am I the only one outraged? Here is this
man, in tax payer supported housing...basically he has someone else paying for
his rent, yet he can keep exotic animals? Don't these animals cost a lot
of money to feed? I would think a tiger did. If he can feed a tiger, he
can bloody well pay for his rent and not live in public
housing.

Man Kept Tiger In Public Housing
A Bengal
tiger, being kept as a pet in a fifth-floor New York City apartment, has been
removed, but the big cat did not go quietly -- the roars could be heard a
block away. Dozens of police and animal control officers were called to
tranquilize the 350- to 400-pound animal while hundreds of people waited on
the street, Long Island's Newsday reports. Police arrested 36-year-old Antoine
Yates in Philadelphia. Police also found a 3-foot caiman, a type of crocodile,
in the apartment. Police were directed to the public housing apartment in
Harlem after Yates was treated for several animal bites at a
hospital.
