A Largo man identified as Yulip Yulip  (pronounced like Tulip) , DOB 09/15/1943, of 12588  128 Ave. N.  Largo, was arrested and charged with one count of felony cruelty to animals. Deputies discovered a dead bird hanging by a rope on display in the front yard and aprox. 100 other birds in cages in poor and unhealthy conditions.

Deputies responded to 12588  128 Ave. N. to assist Pinellas County Code Enforcement in issuing Yulip six citations for various code enforcement violations.  At that time deputies observed a dead bird hanging by a rope on the fence in the front yard.  Yulip stated that he had purchased the bird from a local pet store and the bird subsequently died.  Yulip stated that he then displayed the bird by hanging it on the front fence so the owner of the pet store could see that the bird had died.  Further investigation by deputies revealed aprox. 100 birds in cages in the back yard.  Most birds appeared to be in poor health, unsanitary living conditions, and little or no food or water.  Pinellas County Animal Control and the SPCA are assisting in the investigation.  The SPCA has taken custody of the birds, and possible additional charges are pending from Pinellas County Animal Control.
