Alligator feeding

ZooChat Get-together
September 2011

Are there many more alligators in this exhibit? I can already see maybe 9 or 10. I've seen other photos of the exhibit and it looks massive.

There's heaps in there PAT, Im not sure exactly how many, but probably around 50. Its a reasonably big exhibit too.

I didn't know they did a alligator feeding show actually, but this guy doing it (who did all the shows I saw), is extremely funny and makes the shows incredibly entertaining, interesting and interactive.

I usually avoid shows/presentations/encounters at zoos because I find them boring and of little value to myself, but the shows at the Australian Reptile Park were brilliant and I didn't getbored watching any of them (I watched like 5 on my last trip - all presented by this guy).

Sounds good. It must be a great exhibit to see. Most alligator exhibits I've seen are 1 or 2 specimens in a pool surrounded by reeds.

There are quite a few more than this Pat, but I couldn't say exactly how many.

Some of them were HUGE! Just look at the jaws of the Alligator immediately to the right of the one grabbing the food - he is twice the size of the others.

Try draping that one around your neck!
