- All this week, the California Academy of Sciences is celebrating the tenth anniversary of its move into a new state-of-the art museum in San Francisco. ABC7 News was there a decade ago for behind the scenes coverage as new exhibits were created and old exhibits were re-imagined for the future. Here's more on one of the superstars at Cal Academy, Claude the albino alligator. abc7ne.ws/2xVtbLy

When I went there on a field trip I thought it was a fake aligator
melanie vang same
Aaaah same then I saw this video and realized it was reaaaal
BRO SAME
I used to live by the museum and I thought it was fake too. Especially bc he didn’t move.
Lmao my friend said the same thing n i said Nah it's real. The fact we were stoned when it moved made it even better
Thanks Claude for making senior ditch day memorable
I remember going here for a field trip
Noodles same
COOLEST ALLIGATOR EVER
I learned about this allogator like 2 hours ago and I zoom meetinged with the author Emma Smith
Urban legends never lie. 😌😌😌😌
Thats not cool it has such a tiny Pen.
Wah wah whatever he’s the expert not you
8 Feet is particularly huge for an Albino Alligator.
Then bonnie ate his finger
no she bit it and they did surgery on it and took it off
Dreadful, there is such a thing as humane transportation
This is humane human usually sit in that truck aswell
well there choices are potentially have a alligator escape and possibly injure someone or be rough while keeping everyone and the gator safe
Wow cal academy. That looks stressful. I’ve seen gator wranglers who know how to be kind. This is sad.
Fr
Why you gotta bite him man
I know crazy
And doubly horrible to see how staff pounced him and really scared him, a little finesse kids. This is his introduction
They HAVE TO do it quickly and forcefully because even with his mouth taped, he can knock people out with that tail or run away quickly. As if you could do a better job.
Seriously you need to understand why and how the CAS saved his life before you make such comments
@@sofia7374 it’s possible . I was the city’s go to for handling aggressive animals for years.. they weren’t aggressive with me.. perhaps bc i didn’t exhibit threatening body language To intimidate them.. have corralled 200 lb so called “dangerous” canines for flights in legal cases easily and helped other orgs for yrs with medical with fractious and feral animals and was asked to teach a course on it..
@@sofia7374 you are right caring for wild animals is like raising a child sometimes you HAVE to be strict you HAVE to be hard on them you HAVE to be cruel because there is no other solution
@@shantizinzi5695 yes because a dog and gator are exactly the same thing
Claude is cant look a lot :(
Disgraceful staff. It also has cuts on it's head not inflicted by another alligator.
those aren’t cuts those are wrinkles
Is this animal abuse?
@Angel Jose Mendoza I’m pretty sure this is animal abuse
@@mariosonicguy2569 this is not animal abuse they have to be a little rough with the gator or else it could run away or hurt someone
It IS animal abuse to inflict harm upon an animal for anything other than an accident. And it IS on purpose because there's ALWAYS a better way to transport. Lack of finances are not an excuse to make an intelligent creature that can feel pain and fear bleed. Also there's never "we need to move them". Same as humans to native Americans during the colonization and after.
Yes
Abuse 🦍👋
