thank you
I recently visited the Aquarium of the Pacific. The Marine mammals were particularly active while I was there.
Ellie and Shelby the aquariums two harbor seals apparently mated with Troy and are denning behind the scenes
The aquarium has two grey tip, two bonnethead sharks and a scalloped hammerhead shark on display at the molaki animal marine center. The staff members told me they will all go on display at the big tank in shark lagoon once they get bigger
The pacific visions construction has been mostly completed. I saw staff members starting to put some of the animals in their exhibit
Anyway. I uploaded some picture on my visit there. Hope this was helpful information

The Aquarium of the Pacific will soon be exhibiting the endangered delta smelt.
As California’s delta smelt spirals toward extinction, a future in captivity awaits
As California’s delta smelt spirals toward extinction, a future in captivity awaits
The usual story: over-exploitation of natural resources and our irresponsible behavior leading to extinction of another species. And the political reality that holds sway at the moment seems to think that humankind lives separate from the environment and all is for one species (short term financial "gains").
Here is a look into the new opened Pacific Visions Pacific Visions at the Aquarium of the Pacific
Now that is interesting! Assuming it's rescued, do you know why?
I do not, no. They had some really interesting birds unsigned in the coastal aviary during my visit.

This is wonderful. It's concerning to realize that HALF of the population growth in a key area came from rehabilitation and release. That means numbers aren't increasing on their own. We can't be satisfied until the population continues to increase sustainably on its own.
Really interesting read.
