Colorado’s only gator farm, The Colorado Gator Farm, is in Southern Colorado town called Mosca, between Monte Vista and Alamosa. It features hundreds of rescued reptiles including alligators, crocodiles, caiman, boas, pythons, rattlesnakes, bearded dragons, iguanas, monitor lizards, tortoises, and turtles.

But what happens to the gators when it snows in Colorado? After seeing the video below, I guess it’s safe to say they actually enjoy it…
