Ghost In The Swamp

Animal Interaction - Crocodile Exhibits with Traveling and Temporary Animal ExhibitsAIDG’s “Ghost in the Swamp” was created using the same successful template as our “Crocodile Conflict” with one huge contrasting difference- a large albino alligator. There are very few albino alligators in the world today making this traveling exhibit a rare treasure. Albino alligators are white because of a genetic disorder that effects the pigmentation of their skin. While not a lethal mutation in utero, the disorder makes the gators easy prey without their normal camouflage coloration.

AIDG's "Ghost in the Swamp" is designed to inspire a sense of amazement and capture the public's curiosity about these truly unique animals through museum quality displays, graphics, and an incredible live exhibit that will allow guests to get face to face with such a rare creature both above and below the surface of the water. Guests young and old will have the opportunity to safely hold a juvenile American alligator creating a memory of a lifetime and an opportunity to connect with these amazing animals.

AIDG's unique incorporation of animal interactive experiences creates life long memories while simultaneously creating several tremendous revenue generating opportunitites for your organization.
