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!

Dear Claude,
HIIIIIII, Happy 'Hatchday"!!! Pls give Claude my best regards!
Love, Kamryn

Dear Claude,
Happiest of birthdays to our favorite gator! We have been taking good care of little Claude (my 3 year old daughters favorite stuffed animal) since our visit this spring. She was delighted when she heard it was your birthday and wanted to bring you a cake. Here's to hopefully another 27 years!
