The Shedd Aquarium in Chicago underwent a major renovation of its Oceanarium exhibit from 2017-2019. The renovation improved the habitats for beluga whales, sea lions, fish and sea otters. It also enhanced the visitor experience with a new beluga encounter pool, expanded viewing areas, and an improved amphitheater. The renovated Oceanarium aims to further the aquarium's mission of conservation, education, and connecting people with aquatic life.
Every patriotic Indian, should know about the inhumane cruelty meted out towards our citizens, by the dirty, cruel British deceivers. They tortured and killed thousands of our brave men, inside Cellular Jail, which today, stands as epitaph of one of the worst indignities the cruel British, inflicted upon India and its gallant freedom fighters. This is my humble attempt to bring this monument, to the attention of this world.

People are well aware of the existence and relevance of coral reefs that occur in tropical seas. They are well known for their structural beauty but also because the reefs they form are generally the home of abundant, diverse and colorful communities of fishes and invertebrates.
But corals are not restricted to the shallow waters of tropical seas

OCEANARIUM REIMAGINED
SHEDD AQUARIUM – CHICAGO
Hi, I’m Ken Ramires. I’m the Senior Vice-President of animal collections and animal
training here at Shedd. I’d like to introduce you to Shedd Aquarium’s Reimagined
Oceanarium. You know, when the Oceanarium opened in 1991, it quickly became a
must-see in Chicago. Today it’s one of the most visited marine mammal pavilions in
the world and a premier conservation of education facility. Over the years we’ve seen
beluga cabs born, penguin chicks hatch and rescued sea otters thrive. A whole
generation of Chicago children has enjoyed the wonders of the Oceanarium. Now
after 17 years, the time has come for a major renovation. We’ve recoated the pools,
done necessary maintenance work, and updated the animal life-support operations.
We also made major enhancements to existing exhibits and added some new
experiences to ensure that your journey through the Oceanarium is more amazing
than ever. The Oceanarium was also home to our beloved beluga whales. Now
joining them are loud and boisterous California sea lions, with a renovated habitat
and a larger viewing area for our guests. Also new is the ITW Foundation Beluga
Trail, a rushing river leading to a pristine estuary featuring new salt and fresh water
fishes. One of our newest habitats is the grandeur beluga encounter pool, which will
enable small groups of guests guided by trainers to wade into the water and make
important and life-changing connections with these gentle giants. At the Center of the
Oceanarium is the amphitheater overlooking whale harbor. Over the years, our
marine mammal presentations have showcased the awesome natural behaviors and
learned skills of these animals and their trainers. It’s been pure magic. But now, with
major enhancements to the Oceanarium’s amphitheater, things are going to get a lot
more magical. A favorite of many visitors, the playful otters, some rescued twenty
years ago after the Exxon Valley’s oil spill, will soon return to their renovated home.
The Reganstein Otter Trail Habitat: with improved lighting as well as greater
5. accessibility to viewing windows for all guests, the otters are sure to enjoy their new
and improved home adjacent to the tide pool along the rocky shores of the Pacific
Northwest. We’re excited by these great changes at Shedd and hope that you are
too. Please consider supporting the Oceanarium renovation and “making waves”
campaign. Be an Oceanarium showstopper with a gift of five thousand dollars or
more and you can name your own seat in the amphitheater.
