You’ll Never Forget A Visit To This One Of A Kind Alligator Farm Near New Orleans

Did you know that Louisiana has the largest population of wild alligators in the country? Yep, we’ve got more than two million wild alligators, and that doesn’t even begin to count the number of alligators in alligator farms around the state. Insta-Gator Ranch & Hatchery is an alligator farm in Louisiana, near New Orleans, that makes for a fantastic day trip the entire family can enjoy.

You’ll find the Insta-Gator Ranch & Hatchery just across the Causeway in the rural part of Covington, Louisiana.

The working alligator farm is home to over 2,000 alligators of all shapes and sizes.

During your tour, you’ll get the opportunity to see these gators in a climate-controlled environment.

You'll learn all about how alligators build their nests, what they eat in the wild, preservation efforts, and more.

It's a great adventure for field trips and birthday parties, too.

You might even find yourself inspired to grab a gator!

The littlest of gators are in the "kiddie pool," and you can reach in and pick up an alligator.

During hatching season, you can even have the rare opportunity to watch an alligator hatch in your own hands!
