Some of the Audubon Nature Institute's more unusual exhibits are the white alligators. The nest was found over twenty years ago in the swamp with the baby white alligators just hatching out. We have no idea if they breed true, because all the hatchlings found were male--and these are the only white alligators that have ever been seen. They are leucistic, not albinos.
( No, they are not plastic )
