*Question of the Episode: What makes your local aquarium worth visiting?*
- Newport Aquarium is a leader in Shark Ray conservation, puts a good amount of focus on amphibians, has a shark touch tank, has more underwater tunnels I've ever seen in one place, along with several glass floors that overhangs carnivores, and outside of a couple galleries there's nothing typical or repetitive about it.

I heard about this one it had a mola mola and it sponsored national geographic kids virtual online website animal jam
Because the Georgia Aquarium is a really good aquarium
Well I’ve been there but they never had mola molas instead whale sharks and it was amazing when I went there@@parkersanderson4156
Scott Aquarium at the Omaha Zoo because of everything & Steinhart Aquarium at the California Academy Of Sciences because of the Swamp attraction, featuring Claude the albino American Alligator!🦑
I've always thought the Monterey Bay Aquarium's social media team is one of the best. Glad to see I'm not the only one!
Holy cow, an albatross - let alone an AMBASSADOR albatross - is insane! I’ve visited Monterey a bunch but it seems I gotta schedule a return visit!
What makes my local aquarium worth a visit is the iconic ocean voyager. I know I’m lucky that my aquarium is the world famous Georgia Aquarium. Keep up the great work, Zach.
same
I'm so happy you finally decided to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium! I get a real kick out of going there and I also volunteer there on Tuesday afternoons.
This is my local aquarium :)
Also during certain times of the year, the open sea habitat will have ocean sunfish. Idk when you visited but I unfortunately didn’t see any on my last visit here (about 1 month ago)
The open sea habitat also traditionally had barracuda, and sandbar sharks. They even used to have blue, white, and oceanic white tip sharks at one point but they aren’t around anymore
The huge sunfish that was in the open ocean tank, I learned was returned to the ocean. I think, (don't quote me lol) it's was originally accidentally caught injured, or something like that. Therefore was why they had the Sunfish and rereleased it once it was fully mature and able to breed and help the species strive. (I'd say I'm about 90% sure that's more or less what the aquarium worker told me) She told us the story after she overheard me telling my daughter how they're used to be this super huge sunfish in the tank for years. 🦀🐙🐟🦈🐧🦦🐠🦞🦭 Pretty cool, huh? I think so. 😊👍
#MONTEREYBAYAQUARIUM
If you ever have a chance to go to Baltimore aquarium you absolutely have to. You will be beyond blown away with the exhibits!
I believe they had archer fish there
You need to visit the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach California!
I remember visiting this aquarium back in 2022 and it was so inspiring. It left a pretty big impact on me, and I took a lot of great photography there too.
This is of the amazing Aquariums to visit. I wish i could visit this one.
This is fantastic. Can't wait to see the other parts of Monterey Bay Aquarium.
Keep up the great work covering zoos, aquariums, and more out there!
The shorebird exhibit is my favorite. super underrated. i think you might have one of the only good videos of the space on youtube. most walk through tours dont even include it
*Keep up the amazingly dope work!* 🦈
Mine is the Dallas World Aquarium. There are definitely a few reasons worth going but this depends on what kind of visitor you are. For zoo nerds the aquarium has a good number of extremely rare species of bird. For people that just like to go to zoos and aquariums then I'd say the best reason to go is the atmosphere is fantastic. Sure the place has some less than stellar enclosures, but a majority of it is very natural, lush and quality
*Keep up the amazingly fabulous work!*
I just went there on March 30! I'm from Guatemala and was amazed at all the species in the Aquarium. Amazing vid btw!
The Living Planet Aquarium in Salt Lake City is honestly more than an aquarium. They have some absolutely *stunning* exhibits of local fish species that I love to visit, and a walk-through tropical area similar to a smaller version of the Omaha's Zoo's Lied Jungle. There's actually a butterfly exhibit you can walk through too, which is magical when they land on you. In addition to fish, they also house invertebrates, amphibians, and reptiles, as well as penguins, and even a few smaller mammals (my favorite is their clouded leopard, who is actually not very shy about coming out). And we also have the Hogle Zoo, which I haven't been to since the 90's but has seen a huge number of renovations and is one of the best zoos you can see on a day trip, since it's on the smaller side for a zoo.
I love the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium. Has great exhibits.
Loved this! I'm feeling inspired - what an amazing facility!!!
Yes! Let’s gooo I love zoo tours and so hyped for this
Immediately hooked! Just a few seconds into the video and I already love your presentation and pacing. So entertaining. Much better than other marine aquarium videos. Please keep posting more videos. Subbed and liked!❤
This is an awesome way to start a 3 part tour, it's gotten me REALLY excited to visit this Aquarium one day! Seven gills, Albatross, and the chance to spot wild Whales and Dolphins, my species check list just got a little bit bigger.
Can't wait to see what part 2 is going to bring, see ya next week!
Going to be visiting here for the first time this summer. Been planning this for months.
In terms of conservation and research output, the Monterey Bay is perhaps peerless among zoos and aquariums across the world.
This is the best aquarium tour from you, Zach!
And to answer your question as a fellow New Yorker, the New York Aquarium in Coney Island has this gorgeous shark exhibit called Ocean Wonders: SHARKS! to which I absolutely adore it’s exhibit design and focus on sharks.
Wow I went here when I was 4, I had only remembered the kelp tank, and I never understood why people thought this was such a cool aquarium. Now I fully comprehend just how phenomenal of an *experience* this is rather than just a set of exhibits and I want to head out there again thanks to you!
The live show of Monterrey is so nice.
I’ll admit I usually have no interest in aquariums but holy crap, I need to go to this one!! It’s absolutely stunning and so immersive.
The Monterey Bay aquarium is one of my favorite places in the world, I haven’t been there in a while so it’s cool to see new stuff!!
You could really hear the excitement in your voice, I reckon you saw quite a few firsts at Monterey 🎉 And I think it's the first facility you've visited without meerkats or lions😅
What makes my local aquarium worth visiting is it’s the oldest sea life centre in the world: Brighton sea life centre
My local aquarium is the Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut. It is one of the few aquariums in the US where you can see beluga whales up close. The Mystic Aquarium is also one of the leading research, rescue, and rehabilitation centers for wildlife in southern New England and greater area
LOVE THIS ===MISS THIS VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have two local aquariums. One is the Steinhart Aquarium within the California Academy of Sciences; it has an impressive coral reef exhibit with actual coral that you can see from above and below and a flooded Amazonian river that seamlessly connects the aquarium with the rainforest dome. The other is the Aquarium of the Bay which has a very heavy focus on native SF Bay aquatic life and lots of aquarium tunnels. Also, while not technically an aquarium, Aquatic Collection has an incredibly diverse range of livestock and is the go-to place if you are looking for unusual marine fish for your fish tank.
Thaaaaank you for doing this aquarium
Before I moved to Florida, the two closest aquariums I visited were the Jenkinson’s Aquarium in New Jersey and the New York Aquarium in Coney Island. The Jenkinson’s is a good place to visit if you ever go to the Jersey Shore. The New York Aquarium has been under construction since Sandy, but luckily things have improved for them excellently, their new shark and invertebrate sections are a must see. Plus you can’t miss out on their famous Sea Lion Shows
My local aquarium is the Melbourne Aquarium. What makes it worth visiting is the myriad of local marine life on display from spineless marvels like Tasmanian Giant Crab, Giant Cuttlefish, Southern Rock Lobster and Māori Octopus to weird and unique fish species like Warty Prowfish, Spotted Handfish and Tassled Anglerfish and also a 2.2 million litre Oceanarium with fish from the Coral Sea.
My aquarium is worth visiting because of its awesome exhibit on Utah marine life. It does a great job of highlighting species that can survive in the deserts and canyons of Utah
Great video
What makes my local aquarium worth visiting? The facility's remarkable emphasis on conservation, research, and rehabilitation, which makes it go far beyond being just an amazing place with a dazzlingly variety of marine life, something which it admittedly also is. I think any great aquarium, any great zoological facility really, should strive to go beyond and above the standard "facility where people can view wild creatures", and my local aquarium, which I'm happy to report is the Monterey Bay Aquarium, does just that.
Ooh... I would LOVE to go there! Specially before Into the deep ends.
Went there in 2012. It was included in SF City Pass with a discounted price. Seems like they do not offer it anymore. What a facility, one of the best in the country.
My "local" aquarium would be the Oregon Coast Aquarium. It's an excellent facility that is noteworthy for being the place that Keiko (the Orca from Free Willy) was sent in order to improve his quality of life. After he left they converted his tank into a walk-through facility called "Passages of the Deep." The Aquarium is also near by the Newport Bayfront, which is a touristy area, as well as the Rogue Brewery and OSU's Hatfield Marine Science Center.
Still the best aquarium I’ve ever been to. Saw Makena as well.
I live near Chicago, and living near Chicago, I get to visit the shedd aquarium, my two favorite exhibits here is At Home On The Great Lakes, they have a touch tank for sturgeon.
You definitely need to visit the San Diego Zoo Safari park you’ll love how open and expansive their Asian and African savanna exhibit are.
I would absolutely love if you could take a trip to Northern Ireland, go to the Belfast zoo, and do a tour of their zoo, it's small sure. But, do not mistake it for a bad zoo. They have an animal that will never be posted on the channel again. They have the Extinct in the wild Barbary Lion, also known as the Atlas Lion. Please go there Zoo tours ❤ Love from Houston
Hey, I’m a huge fan of your videos. I have just one question. When are you going back to San Diego Zoo?
One reason that makes my local aquarium (Mystic Aquarium) is because they have two Beluga Whales and one acts like a goober
All though the Texas State isn’t near me,it’s worth visiting it for the Caribbean Journey for the natural sunlight
My local aquarium is very tiny but it has great diversity like native animals and exotic animals like monkeys.
I'm going to the aquarium this June while in town for my cousin's wedding :)
The Georgia Aquarium is great because of the Ocean Voyager and the Beluga exhibit.
Great start to Monterey, Zach
Kinda random but MBA sort of despises Georgia based on what I’ve heard while talking to the staff there
@@TreetheSmelt Why?
@hahyrningr, they said it was because they’re not big fans of animals like cetaceans, tiger sharks, manta rays, and whale sharks in captivity
I did the underwater explorers thing and it was amazing
Mine is the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach ( L.A counts it as its aquarium) the Seal Lion presentation, Lorikeet aviary and theatre are all highlights
I think people should visit my local aquarium because of the whale sharks and manta rays plus other really cool animals
The Loveland Living Planet Aquarium in Utah has very great exhibits and even has a whole area dedicated to just the local water life in Utah.
best aquarium in the world
I regret not stopping here during my vacation along the California coastline last summer. it was my parents choice though, we would have missed our hotel.
When will part two be ready
The reason people should visit my Local aquarium is because of their special exhibits based on the wetlands of Louisiana, and the ocean life in the Gulf of Mexico
Are the wings of the shorebirds clipped?
The Dallas World Aqaurium Near me is KNOWN for their jungly tropical feel. With the giant birdcage with monkeys, crocodiles, giant fresheater fishes like the arapaima, It also includes saltwater fish still giving a tropical vibe like the cenote exhibit with the sharks and sawfish. Very much worth a visit. (What i said is just a small fraction of whats there:
Well my local aquarium is the Monterey Bay Aquarium so i think u said it all in this video
Wha-hoo!!! Been there before! When will Part 2 come? And visit the Woodland Park Zoo next, Zak! Also, here are 4 zoo trivia questions for you & your girlfriend....
1) What year did the San Francisco Zoo announce the return of giant pandas from China after so many years, since 2 of them are coming?
2) How many African Elephants did the Oakland Zoo lost so far, since Donna moved to the Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee?
3) Do you prefer the Monterey Bay Aquarium to breed halibuts or bonitos?
4) How many years ago did the San Diego Zoo originally have the Sea Lion Amphitheatre show?
Bubbling Shonisaurus!🦑
My two local aquariums are Boston, and mystic. I would say Boston has really nice enclosures my favorite vein the giant pacific octopus. The best reason to visit Mystic aquarium is the beluga whales.
What makes my local aquarium worth it is that since it's in Hawaiʻi, we have monk seals! 🥰💜 But sadly they've went somewhere to recuperate 😢
Question: are the three videos of the three part series gonna be posted one week apart?
You'll get that answer tomorrow🙂
you should tour the Boise Zoo
Sea life is mine and you visit it and visit the Potter park zoo too it's the oldest zoo in Mi
what makes my local aquarium worth of visiting is that is the only on Europe that has managed to breed belugas
, the largest in Europe
and the only aquarium on the entire world who has roughsharks
i m talking about the Oceanografic of Valencia
I’m kinda smack in the middle of two aquariums. One of them is a quick thing in the middle of Boston (can see everything in 2 hours) so it’s a great stop if you’re spending the day there, plus you can see their seals for free right outside the aquarium. The other one has a bunch of belugas and stellers sea lions but comes with the unfortunate side effect of requiring you to go to Connecticut
It seems like Rotterdam Zoo has had alot of inspiration of this aquarium.
I love to see American zoo's most times there not better in animal welfare then Dutch zoo's.
But the ones who are better are absolutely magnificent and clearly the best enclosures in the world.
Should visit it
that being Sea life
Finding dory brought me here
you should check out Seaworld abu dhabi in UAE it's very nice
Zaragoza Aquarium is the second biggest river aquarium in Europe
I've been there 2 time
The perfect5 time to go the Monterey is during the summer.
That's when the whales come to the bay to feed.
I went there in 09 and saw dozens of humpbacks.
You are a liar. This is not a zoo. This is an aquarium.
Which is basically a fish zoo
@@edwardjennings6021 may I introduce you to "sarcasm"?
@@mulltonnenlidl7676 fair enough
30K SUBSCRIBERS
My now local aquarium has wildlife you can only find in the state
0:35 what kind of fish is that?
Australian Ghostfish
that penguin habitat is so sad and disgusting shame because the rest of the aquarium looks nice
I dont have a local aquarium 😔
