        Awesome indeed. But I wonder how the whale feels about it, being cooped up in that enclosure. I would feel stressed ๐Ÿ™‚ .

        I'd feel stressed too.. ๐Ÿ˜ž
        ChiefKiasu:
        Is it connected to the open ocean?


        I'm suddenly being reminded of the movie where killer sharks
        were highly intelligent after being used for mega-brain-experiments
        done by humans, and they actually plotted their escape together... yup
        the few elite ones at the facility and started eating the humans one by one
        by one.... *gulp*... ๐Ÿ˜“ ... and it all began with harmless viewing like da
        one posted here... *double gulp*... I may be a swimmer but one can NEVER
        outswim the mighty shark... As for whales... :idea: ... I dun fancy being in
        their gut... with all other food that they have swallowed... just like Dory &
        Marlin (Daddy Nemo).

            the only reason why we don't see larger whales, is because someone has not build a bigger tank Yet ๐Ÿ˜ž

            what we can do is educate our child that fish-tank (no matter big or small) is not whale's habitat ๐Ÿ™

            For IR Sentosa, with or without whales, the experience would be just as splendid :love:
            hope I don't antagonize some GreenPeace folks :oops:

              This is a shark, not a whale. I donโ€™t think there is any whale in captivity at any aquarium.

                Youโ€™re right, itโ€™s a Whale Shark (largest fish in the world, but harmless).


                Whales in captivity are mainly Killer Whales (Orca)

                        Erm, initially I thought this is a link for whales, sharks, rays out in the open sea.


                        Any sea creatures kept in aquarium stresses me out ๐Ÿ˜ข , along with birds in Jurong Birdpark and animals in the zoos ๐Ÿ˜ข ๐Ÿ˜ข
                        Everytime I visit the zoo with DS, I will hv a bad headache, so much so that I will take Neurofen prior to the visit. I hate to walk around to see the poor animals, I can't wait to get to Kids World for waterplay. Those poor lifeless lions, totally lonely cougar/jaguar/leopard all alone in the tiny cage. The white tigers seems neurotic and they seem to pace excessively, which seems to me very unnatural behaviour.
                        Birdpark is worst, especially those birds of prey in their tiny cage and looking totally lifeless ๐Ÿ˜ข :x
                        DH sometimes think I m too :siao: ๐Ÿ˜ about such things.
                        I would rather watch all these magnificant creatures on tv.
