An alligator at a US zoo had to undergo surgery after veterinarians discovered 70 coins in the animal's stomach. The coins were found in a rare, 36-year-old leucistic alligator, which has translucent white skin and blue eyes. The Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium in Omaha, Nebraska said patrons threw coins into the enclosure, which were eaten by the animal between cleanings.
The zoo urged visitors to avoid throwing "coins into any bodies of water at the zoo", after the sizeable amount of change was pulled from the animal's stomach. All 10 alligators - including Thibodaux - participated in a routine examination which involved blood collection, radiographs and more. When zoo workers discovered the coins, they acted fast and performed surgery on Thursday, removing the coins from Thibodaux "before they caused any problems"
