B&W Photo Contest - Animals: Entry #2 - Albino Alligator

in #bwphotocontest7 years ago (edited)

For my second entry into this week's B&W Photo Contest hosted by @daveks and sponsored by @papa-pepper I present a shot of the rare Albino Alligator. There actually two different types of white alligators, the albinos and the leucistic, both of which are virtually impossible to find in the wild. They typically can only survive in captivity due to complications with their condition.


This particular Albino Alligator is one of a pair that is located at the Wild Florida Wildlife Park located in Kenansville, FL.

They are awesome creatures. I actually was thinking about posting a few shots yesterday of albino gators - now I'm definitely going to! I'll tag you and this post - the ones I snapped were in the Dallas, TX zoo. Maybe they're cousins 😆

haha, awesome @grow-pro!

Is he smiling? Did you give him a gator treat? Very nice shot!

Thanks @fotosdenada! We were actually inside the exhibit with him when I got that shot and the trainer had actually just fed him treat to get him in the pool...lol
