Theme park only park to successfully breed albino reptiles
KENANSVILLE, Fla. – Wild Florida is living up to its alligator hatching success with the arrival of a new rare albino gator.
The theme park in Osceola County said out of a nest of 9 eggs, one successfully hatched on Saturday. The alligator’s parents, Snowflake and Blizzard, are also albino.

“This is our third year in a row of babies and Wild Florida remains the only park on the planet that has successfully bred albino alligators,” Wild Florida co-owner Sam Haught said in a statement.
Leaders said the hatchling is very healthy and will stay in protective care for a few weeks before being introduced to an exhibit.
Guests can see some of the other baby albino alligators and their superstar parents on display in areas of the park.
White Gator PING!..................
white gator boots would be nice.
Before COVID hit, my wife and great niece and i drove down to Wild Florida from Orlando.
It’s a great place. We went on an airboat ride and paid extra to have some up close experiences with other animals.
A very reputable place and definitely not hokey.
How exactly does one celebrate an albino alligator?

Phone only has crocodiles
After while
.
Any way you wish - just as long as it is safe and fully complies with “Alligator Celebratory Guidelines”.
Did only 1 of the 9 eggs hatch? Was there a genetic problem that prevented the other 8 eggs from developing, connected with a double dose of the albino gene?
I was able to see one of those albino alligators 🐊 once, at a zoo in Arizona.
Albino Arizona alligators are quite rare.
