Come with us to Indonesia! We are proud to be part of the international consortium, @ReShark_org helping to repopulate zebra sharks in Indonesia. We went to one of the hatcheries where zebra shark pups are cared for before being released with the hopes of reinvigorating this species in its native waters. Here's how it works:
🌊 Eggs laid by genetically diverse breeding pairs at aquariums like Georgia Aquarium
🌊 Viable eggs are transported to local hatcheries in Indonesia
🌊 Local Indonesian teams manage the care and welfare of those eggs, and eventually the pups that hatch
🌊Once hatched and assessed, juvenile zebra sharks are tagged and then released into designated marine protected areas

Caring for our animals, our oceans and our community is at the heart of what we do. Through generous contributions we are able to provide educational experiences, provide immersive programs to veterans, conduct research on species like whale sharks, and help animals in need of a home or rescue. Supporting Georgia Aquarium helps support our animals, ocean, and our community. #givingtuesday Looking for more ways to give back and give to friends and family?

Is it now socially acceptable to go full send into Holiday? ❄️ Because... we may already be there!

Happy Thanksgiving from Georgia Aquarium! 🍂🦃 Today and every day, we are thankful for our incredible animals, staff, volunteers, and you – our Aquarium family. Without our dedicated teams and passionate guests, we wouldn't be able to accomplish all the work we do each year. We are grateful to be a part of preserving our world’s ocean through research and education. ❤️🌊 What about you? What are you #ThankfulFor? Share below! 👇🏼

@danlion_04 wants to know more about spotted eagle rays. Comment below what you want to learn about next! Spotted eagle rays get their name from the peculiar shape of their snouts – which are round and pointed at the tip, just like a bird’s beak. They use their pointed snouts to probe through the sand to capture prey. It prefers to swim either near the surface or close to the bottom and will leap completely out of the water if pursued.

Thanksgiving is less than a week away?! We think Salem our harbor seal is ready! 🍁🐟
