 White Alligator at my zoo

I’m an intern at my local zoo (and have been for about a month), and I finally got to feed our white alligator yesterday, as well as the 3 dwarf crocodiles. I haven’t fed anything bigger than a ball python before, so it was pretty exciting for me. The white alligator (her name is Marie) is about 4 1/2 years old, and she is very beautiful. Here are some pictures:


Sorry if this seems mundane to all you crocodilian experts, but it was very exciting for me!

Are you talking about the one at the Wildlife World Zoo, or a different one? She didn’t seem too mean when I was feeding her - at least, no meaner than an alligator should be. It seemed like the burmese python was more malicious than the alligator or the crocs. Of course, I’ve only been around them (without a pane of glass between us) the one time.

I actually held an albino alligator when I was in Florida 2 years ago. They have a couple at the Alligator Farm and you can either hold a regular one or the albino one. It was about 2-3 feet long and had it’s mouth tape shut obviously. It did not want to be held though, starting trashing about when I was holding it!

I was at Gatorland Oct 2005 and they had a huge white gator-wasn’t quite 13 feet though, probably about 8+ feet. I’ll have to scan my pictures of it and post them. They are definitely beautiful gators!

Nice pic! You never see them in the wild becouse they die or get eaten early...sad...but nice to see one they have to be bread in captivity.
