Yr'Apaly Omin, a male Gungan, was an animal keeper. He was employed at the zoo located in Otoh Gunga. Otoh Gunga's zoo was also known as the Otoh Gunga Zoological Research Facility. He is considered a Gungan in Legends canon and is male.
Omin gave Jar Jar Binks a tour of the zoo on the day Binks started working there. When they got to the Opee sea killer aquarium, the animal keeper put some live food into the tank. Binks saw the Opee's tongue extend to grab the food, touching the hydrostatic bubble around the aquarium. Binks became frightened and pushed the emergency button on a central control panel. As a result, nearly half of the zoo's hydrostatic fields were turned off. The Opee then ate some of the zoo's most valuable animals and made its way into the ocean.
The character Yr'Apaly Omin was initially referenced in the Jar Jar Binks entry of The Official Star Wars Fact File 5. However, the description of Binks' actions in that file clashes with the accounts presented in the Star Wars: Episode I Adventures series, which instead identifies Huff Zinga as the person in charge of the zoo.
