Great attraction. It's not a zoo, or really an aquarium as I know them, but more of a working marine biology lab. All the animals there are either born in captivity or injured and brought in for rehabilitation. Healthy ones are released and others make a permanent home at Mote. And they have incredible exhibits and great docents. They're eager to assist and seem to be knowledgeable. Highly recommended attraction!
