Ask why the Aquarium is creating an Australian exhibit, and you’ll get an array of answers. The truth is: Australia is unlike any other place on Earth.
It is home to an amazing diversity of life - unique species found nowhere else on the planet, primitive creatures that have lived unchanged for millions of years, and, just simply, remarkable animals. Each tells an unbelievable story about survival, adaptation, and
the environment.
We chose Australia for the lessons it could teach our schoolchildren, the experience it could offer families.
Australia enables us to help create a better quality of life for our community. Australia continues the magic.
The Aquarium’s Australian exhibit, the most authentic of its kind in the United States will open in 2005.
Many of the extraordinary animals that will live in the exhibit arrived during 2003, and we are delighted to introduce you to some of them, along with other highlights of a truly
remarkable year!
