presents the
Ghost of the Bayou
-a rare white alligator experience-

Member's Only Preview, March 18 from 9-12 pm

Take a glimpse of this rare and magical creature. Special member preview will take place March 18 from 9 am to noon with the public opening from noon to 5 pm.

Make your way through the Alabama Wilds to the Ghost of the Bayou exhibit which features one of the rarest creatures known to man, an 8 foot long, pink-eyed white alligator named Boudreaux.

Enhanced with Spanish moss and Cypress Knees, this under-water viewing experience is sure to be a highlight of the spring and summer seasons at the Birmingham Zoo for all ages. To add to the fun, the Zoo is also offering daily alligator feedings and will feature a smaller white alligator, Diablo Blanco, in the new Wildlife Shows.
