After Closing Down, This Sea World Shares The Adventures Of A Sea Lion Who Gets To Visit Other Animals At The Oceanarium
After all of the zoos and aquariums started to close their doors for visitors, many people began to wonder what happened to their adorable animals. As it turned out, not only are they being taken care of very well, many of them are also provided with the chance to go on adventures. Take for instance these adorable penguins from Shedd Aquarium. The lovely gang of sea birds was allowed to stroll around the empty aquarium after it was closed due to the pandemic. People absolutely love the video of their little ‘field trip’, which inspired other zookeepers to do the same.

Share on FacebookThe idea of letting the animals tour the aquarium during the outbreak is brilliant. The sea lion looks like he enjoyed it.
That sea lion seems to be well looked after. He even gets back rubs.

Figuring why criminals do what they do is extremely important. If one can figure out why, one may be able to prevent what ever crime to happen again and even catch a criminal. I admire you deeply.

That’s super cool! I’m glad Birri was able to have this opportunity.
You know what, if this can be done for the animals regularly, aquariums and zoos are not so bad after all.
It's actually pretty sad when you think about how that sea lion should be free and living in the ocean -- not held prisoner in an aquarium for the amusement of humans.
I think that handsome boy would really love to go for a swim in there. That would be a true adventure.
The sea lion is so sweet. Though I wish sea world would close everywhere. I hate seeing these animals in places like this. Sea world has a terrible reputation for animal abuse.
'Look at this amazing copy of the world that you will never get to experience because we keep you captive for our entertainment'. So heartwarming....
Please research what they are about. It will change your mind.
