- $1.5 million dollars of admission fees were donated to foster children, families, and teachers as part of our SeaQuest Care Initiative.
For the Love of Animals!
- Celebrated 1.213 live births from 8 species giving us the ability to help with the conservation of endangered animals.
- Thousands of animals now have a place to call home due to the 26 new exhibits installed in 2019
