Monday, October 23 - Chattanooga Aquarium
It’s tourist
day! Neither of us had been to the aquarium, so it was our
destination.
The Aquarium is
amazing, I would love to meet the designer. The admission price was a
little steep, but I’m sure it’s expensive to maintain. We saw the otter
show, which was basically the otters looking for food, which the trainers call
“enrichment.”
The frog exhibit
was pretty cool. How does a blue frog blend in with his
environment?
These were probably
the ugliest frogs I have ever seen. I took these pictures for Jeannie -
she hates even pretty frogs.
Over one third of
the frog species on the planet have disappeared. It was alarming to read
the comparison on this sign.
This turtle was
sticking his head into a hole in the rocks. Maybe there is some
“enrichment” in there. 
We spent most of
our time in the “River” building, but this was in “Ocean.” It’s a real shark
cage. I’m surprised Danny stepped into it. You could see where it
had been bent during a shark attack!
And some random
pictures.
