Sorry for such an inproductive day you guys, I was really busy.

Here are Ian and Jen, the two adorable and extremely friendly leatherback sea turtles.

Here is Atua, with another female whale shark ( Laura ) we bought to keep him company.

That is all for today. Hopefully I can get more done tommorow.


[modnotice=Rosina’s Cat]Kiwah, You should only double post in your Show and Tell thread if you have pics to show on BOTH posts!.[/modnotice]

Sorry Rosina... ::(:

Crookshankz, if you mean in the turtle pic, that is the bottom of the fence, as my turtles live in an exhibit, not a tank. If you mean the shark pic, I have no idea, there are just dots on the tank walls. Thanks you guys! Lets see, I will open for ONE request, and only one. It may not have pictures and things until later, as I have to leave soon, but if you are quick, I might be able to do it now.

I do like the shark pic actually. I wasn't expecting many compliments since it was just a very quick picture that happened to come out well.

I think it has been over two hours..... anyway, I was just posting to say that I am still waiting for a request. The only requirement is it has to be an MM animal.

Beagleboy, I would prefer it not to be. My only exception is a female manatee to keep hugo company.

Ok, here we go. June, a female Manatee that had washed up on shore, is now living with Hugo in their now even bigger tank, and the two have already bonded immensely.

Also, I just got a call about some goblin sharks trapped in a fishing net. there were only two of them, but when they got free, they were tangled in nets. They could no longer swim, and were found wriggling on a beach, sick and injured. Should we take these two in?

A collector of rare animals has been found by the ASPCA living just outside of NYC.  Within his large yard, hundreds of animals both exotic and native were discovered.  Unfortunatly they had all been imprinted by humans and couldn't return to the wild.  After hearing of the recent success of your park we have decided you are a leading candidate to take in some of his marine life.  Three rockhopper penguins (2 females, one male) and young hammerhead shark (male)  are being offered to you.  You can except both, one or the other, or neither.  Hopefully, someone will be able to foster these poor neglected sea animals.  So, are you willing to help?

Jack and Sally, the two goblin sharks. ( <--Yes, nightmare reference, Jack the pumkin king and Sally the patchwork girl! ) Maybe we shouldn't let little kids go near this tank....

Pam and Flippy, two rockhopper penguins saved from a backyard. Thanks Ironchef!

News!
Jen the leatherback sea turtle laid two eggs the other day. For succeeding in breeding two leatherback sea turles, I received four, yes four, manta rays. Les, Ray, Jim, and Martha.

Am I the only one that sees the fish shape in this coral?

One request open!
