The gator couple—a male called Blizzard and a female called Snowflake—are living at the Wild Florida Airboats facility in Kenansville. They became the first pair of breeding albino alligators in Central Florida after being acquired from St. Augustine Alligator Farm in May 2017.

Bruh. A leucistic alligator vs. an albino alligator are two totally different things. It’s not semantics. At all.

Your education is really paying off for you.
So you’ve seen several that WOULD have been born in Louisiana? Why didn’t you call DWF since one has never been captured? ICYMI, an obviously you did, the white alligator in Audubon Zoo wasn’t an albino.

Now you know. You’re welcome.

Let’s see, I’ve picked over 1 million alligator eggs in my lifetime. My relatives have farmed roughly 100k alligators since 1995. All eggs have been taken from the Louisiana marshland.

So before you continue to sound like a complete imbecile, understand you will never be the smartest man in the room.

Decendants of Louisiana albino gators. Phys.org gave the back story.

Albino alligators were bred infrequently in Louisiana years ago, Haught said. The albino population with its roots in Louisiana are suspected to have spawned from the mating of two non-albino alligators.

The albinos that were found in the area were typically sold to zoos or private collectors, he said.

Haught said the surviving albino gators nowadays are born in captivity.

I don’t have to be the smartest person in the room. But I’m smart enough to know the leucistic alligators in Audubon zoo aren’t albino.

The existing albino alligator popULations have their roots in Louisiana.

FFS, just exit the discussion already.

There have been some strange discussions on this board over the years but this one…..

This one has turned out to be really strange. Goodness gracious

The greatest college mascots of all time
Updated August 05, 2019 | By Sam Greszes

19. University of Louisiana-Lafayette: Cayenne


No, that isn't a "Banjo-Kazooie" enemy who wandered onto a basketball court; that's Cayenne, the nightmarish anthropomorphic pepper who cheers on the Ragin' Cajuns. Unfortunately, the team has been prone to flaming out in the postseason, having never made it past the second round of the tournament since its wins from the 1972 and '73 seasons were vacated.

UL's Cayenne among top 25 mascots

by Leslie Turk

Yahoo! Sports ranks the Ragin' Cajuns' Cayenne among the best mascots in the country.

In its just-released, "Top 25 Great College Football Mascots: More Than Just Oversized Heads," Yahoo! Sports ranks UL's Cayenne among the country's "unique, inspiring, and memorable nicknames/mascots" of the 2012 season.

A menacing, well-chosen nickname designed to instill fear in the heart of an opponent is essential to college football success. With this in mind, I submit 25 memorable mascots as we gird up our loins for another season of collegiate gridiron action. Before you bewail why your favorite didn't make the list, please keep in mind that the countdown only goes to 25.

Here's what the writer had to say about Cayenne, which ranked No. 23:

Louisiana Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns - Cayenne is unquestionably college football's hottest mascot. Since the cayenne pepper is a staple food of Louisiana, in particular in the southern region around Lafayette, Cayenne is a unique and uniquely suited mascot.

Chicks dig him.

Doesn't a New Orleans Funeral March usually involve a casket?
