Claude is turning 29 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!

Say Happy Hatchday to Claude
