Man keeps pet alligator to impress women

A man has been arrested in Illinois after police discovered that he illegally owned a pet alligator.

MSN News reports that Deywayne Yarbrough was arrested on Thursday after police received an anonymous tip that he was keeping the 4ft-long creature in confined conditions at his home in Ford Heights.

When questioned about the animal, Yarbrough claimed that he had purchased it over five years ago in Indiana, and had been keeping it to try and impress women.

The American alligator has now been removed by the Animal Welfare League, following which it will be given to the Chicago Herpetological Society.

Yarbrough has been arrested and charged with possession of a dangerous animal, and is due in court on July 5.

I have it on good authority that women prefer cute little capuchin monkeys.

He should definitely take up guitar or bass and join a band, and keep quit about his pets.
