Just for fun, while we all anxiously await updates on the albino eggs in Florida.....

Here is the top ten list from 20ish years ago, as posted at the Audubon Zoo's leucistic alligator display.



10. The only make-up that really matches their complexion is White-Out.

9. Always feeling under-dressed when hanging around the other gators.

8. People who yell: "Hey Snow White, where are the dwarfs!?!?!"

7. Identity crisis--constantly having to convince visitors that they're not fake: "No, really, I'm not made of plastic. I'm real!! Look, I'm moving!! See?! Hey come back!!"

6. "Flesh" colored Band-Aids.

5. Nicknames like Casper, Snowball, Dandruff...

4. Hungry visitors who think that they look like White Chocolate (NO! You can't have a bite!).

3. In a Halloween rut--tired of always going as "the Ghost of an Alligator."

2. One word: sunburn. It ain't easy being fair-skinned...in the swamp....with no sunscreen...and NO CLOTHES! Ouch!!

1. Sick of being called "the other white meat."
