At the Aquarium

(Edited)

Shedd Aquarium is an indoor aquarium in Chicago, Illinois. It holds 32,000 animals and is a wonderful place to explore the aquatic life of the world.

The 5,000,000 US gal aquarium was for some time the largest indoor facility in the world.

Salt water used to be brought to the aquarium by train car, but now it is manufactured on site.

Scientists from the Aquarium have been desperately searching for ways to save the world's coral reefs.

She is deaf and somehow that gives her a special connection to animals, and it was wonderful to see how much she enjoyed all of these creatures.

It must take a while to walk around this very big Aquarium. I hope scientists find a way to save our coral reefs. The Great Barrier Reef meeds a lot of help.

Many days can be spent at the Aquarium. As our oceans get warmer we all need a lot of help.

Reviving coral reefs is crutial, interesting how things change with time.

Everything plays a big part in our survival even though we are unable to witness life in the deep blue seas.

Lovely visit @melinda010100

As our oceans temperatures continue to rise I hope that solutions can be found.

Maybe Mother Nature changing her course of action, humans still need to clean up their act, way too much pollution.

Ah, the Shedd Aquarium! I was only there for a very short time, as they were closing. It looks like you got to enjoy it a bit longer though! DId you smell... I mean "see" the penguins?

Penguins are always fun to see and always fragrant! I've been to a few other aquariums and it is always much the same!
