Meet Antoine LeBlanc - a rare white American alligator.
His unusual appearance is caused by a genetic mutation.
A spokesperson says when Antoine gets excited and blushes he actually
turns pink.
This gator is making new friends in San Francisco for three months.
He is visiting from the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans.
