I don't want to be a dink but, like, the photo is right there! And in that photo is an animal without tusks. So why did the cartoonist draw a walrus? Walrus aren't sea lions.
This is sort of good I guess for some enrichment, but I went to the Vancouver aquarium a decade ago and it was sad. The dolphins /whales in the tank just did the exact round trip of their environment over and over, with same twist , rollover and turn every time. I watched for half hour and it was an unbroken loop of the exact motion. Those animals were losing their minds in there. When family came to visit and insisted on going I just dropped them off and said call me when you are done and just drove around Vancouver for an hour. I couldn't see that again.
Is that glass even transparent where the sea lion could see the elephant or is it one-way glass?
No, the sea lion can see out. That's the fun, they can actually interact with the people, if they want to. Some do, some don't.
These kinds of tanks are common in big aquariums like Sea World.
Gotcha. Thanks for the reply!
I guess I was thinking like the water arch type tanks are mirrored so I wasn’t sure if all aquariums were. You know the ones with sharks you walk under
