Happy #28 Hatchday Claude!!! We love you!!
Claude is turning 28 years young on September 15! We'll honor our favorite alligator with albinism with a smorgasbord of tasty treats (including fresh trout!) and a special birthday edition of Swamp Talk. Thanks for celebrating with us—Claude (and his team of attentive Academy biologists) really feel the love!

Happy hatchday, Claude
Wishing you a very happy day with lots of goodies and plenty of float time. You are the first one I look for when I visit the Academy. I was so surprised to learn that you weren’t “fake” the first time I saw you. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one who thought that.
Love, Pam (SAC Trainer)

I love you so much I wanted to be you for Halloween one year! You are amazing and you’re the first thing I run to see at the Academy. It is so fun to watch you swim around. I hope you have a very special birthday and get lots of yummy treats!

Dear Claude
Happy Hatchday! We've watched you grow for almost 15 years now, and my daughter grew up drawing many pictures of you. You are our favorite albino reptile (we also miss LemonDrop) and we wish you many happy crunchy returns.
Love, the Adduci family
