The aquarium was also home to Winter, a dolphin who received a prosthetic tail after losing her tail in a crab trap line. Winter lived at the aquarium until she passed away in 2021.
The aquarium has recently welcomed 3 harbor seals, Scallop, Pharaoh, and Ocean, who live in a new habitat for pinnipeds.
Harbor seals face threats such as pollution, habitat loss, and reduced food sources. Through its rescue and care programs, the aquarium works to protect marine animals and raise awareness.
