Pictures of Apollo the Alligator

Apollo is one of our most memorable animal rescues.  We rescued him November 29th, 2009.  Police had found him in an abandoned house in a plastic tote with wooden boards nailed to the top; no food, water, light or heat for an unknown period of time.  Another rescue temporarily took him in, and we told them we would take him.  Ever since we had Apollo we have been working with him and I have personally trained him to do certain "tricks".  Now, he is a very different individual; he is not your typical alligator with everything... He is in no way a dog, or like a dog, though some of his characteristics seem very simialr to that of a dog.  I can't stress this enough, just because Apollo is a very different individual, in no way means anybody that has an alligator will have one like him.  Apollo travels with us on our educational shows in colleges, day cares, camps, schools, birthday parties etc.  He is known worldwide and has even had the opportunity to have met several celebrities such as the gator boys.  He will also have a children's book that we are currently writing, telling his life adventures.  Feel free to check out our gift shop as well, which has Apollo the Alligator T-shirts for sale.
