Four of the SHC members visited the St. Augustine
Alligator Farm (SAAF) and were treated to a behind the scenes tour by
the general curator, John Brueggan. John has been at the SAAF for
many years and not only looks after the current collection, but
contributes to research and conservation efforts for crocodilians.
The SAAF stakes claim as being the only facility in the world to have
every species of crocodilian! The students saw
everything, including the stuffed "Gomek", Maximo, and even dozens of
young white (leucistic) alligators.
