An albino alligator? :) That was the whole reason that we went actually... and they don't really call it a zoo, they call it the Living Museum... but whatever they call it, they had some cool stuff :)

It's in Virgina Beach :) We were down there for a family wedding in June. They called it "The Living Museum" I think... it was pretty cool... not a huge place or anything, but they definitely had some neat stuff :D

Yeah, they have a small collection of white gators down here in St. Augustine, Florida. It's called the Alligator Farm, and I'm pretty sure it's been said that they have the most extensive crocodillian collection in the world. I'm also pretty sure I read that they have every species of crocodillian that exists. They are/were the home of "Gomek" who was the biggest crocodile in captivity and probably the world. He was humungous! Unfortunately he died, but he was taxidermied and is still housed there. He was so big!!!
