St. Augustine Alligator Farm - Albino Alligator The live albino alligator and the dead stuffed Gomek are still stars at St. Augustine Alligator Farm.
[S. Parker, 03/26/2010]We hope to have the Gomek memorial/St. Augustine Alligator Farm history exhibit ready by December, but the date is tentative at this time. We have many new exhibits which opened this year -- mixed-species toucan/parrot/tamarin display, many other new birds, and more small primates, new baby alligators, new petting zoo animals and picnic area, lots of new lizards, etc.
