Walrus at Coney Island Aquarium

The animal was called Olaf. I wasn´t able to find any information about Corney Island Aquarium.

Not trying to be facetious, but is that "Corney" Island or Coney Island Aquarium?

Doing a little research, which I'm sure any fellow ZooChat member from New York could have answered, Coney Island is the location of the New York Aquarium. Hence, one and the same. Currently closed due to recent damage from Hurricane Sandy, here's a little more info:

Thanks for that and for the links !

Having never been to New York, I never knew the aquarium was located on Coney Island either.
