Walker is smiling big because he’s proud to share that the St. Augustine Alligator Farm has once again been accredited by The Association of Zoos and Aquariums (@zoos_aquariums )! A big thank you to our staff for their dedication.

Check out these adorable juvenile Southern copperhead snakes. They are currently living behind-the-scenes and are a bit shy, but will pop out of their hiding spots, mostly as a trio.

This week, we celebrated Eastern Indigo Day and Love Hornbills Day. We’re keeping the love going this Valentine’s Day weekend by offering a special sale on our custom Eastern indigo snake and hornbill plush animals. These one-of-a-kind plushes are only $5 each this weekend.

Big news about our tiny tufted babies! Our twin cotton-top tamarins are both girls 📷 Their official names are Storm and Wolverine. The names were originally inspired by the black markings on their heads. Their superpower? Being adorable.

Coco and Drilo reporting for duty! Today, we’re hitting up The Rookery to check out who’s flying in. Coco got a closer look at the roseate spoonbills, then we both settled into the photographer’s deck to snap some sweet birding photos.
Reminder 🚨The Coca-Cola Beverages Florida Holiday Caravan is pulling up to the St. Augustine Alligator Farm today, Friday, December 19, from 1pm to 3pm. Come out and enjoy festive activities, refreshing beverages, and have your photo taken with Santa!
Howdy! Coco and Drilo here, and we’re hanging out in the gift shop, helping sort and bottle alligator teeth. We also took a quick break to work on our winter reading list, then rounded out the day helping Molly answer some pressing emails.
We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the Jingle Bell Croc Night Market this past Friday. Please note, there is no night market tonight, December 16, at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm. The date was incorrectly listed on several event sites.
Greetings! Coco and Drilo here - we’ve been sent down from the North Pole to join the crew at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm. We’re under direct orders from you-know-who to help make sure everything is in tip-top shape for the holiday season!
You know it’s getting festive at the Farm when Tick Tock puts on his Santa hat! We’ll be here spreading cheer with very special holiday hours:
Christmas Day, 10am-4pm
New Year’s Day, 10am-4pm
Hint Hint - Tick Tock is the giant crocodile from the 2003 film "Peter Pan."
Enjoy the sweet nibbles of our Prevost’s squirrel, Demis, eating an apple slice. Their diets consist of fruit, nuts, seeds, buds, flowers, insects, and bird eggs.
