Pops the alligator at Gatorland. He was a hatchling when the park opened in 1949. He apparently is also a movie star, having appeared in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
That film takes place in India (filmed in Sri Lanka), where crocodiles live. What were you thinking Spielberg?! #croctober 🐊

Even with a fence between us, it’s still intimidating being this close to such a big Nile croc.

At the end you’ll notice this Cuban croc (C. rombifer) blink their third eyelid aka nictitating membrane. This helps protect their eyes underwater, while still allowing them to see.

It’s Blondie, a beautiful Nile crocodile!
I’ve seen yellow reptiles like this often referred to as xanthic. Mutation? Polygenic morph? Anyone know more?
