Tennessee Aquarium
Dive into two worlds of wonder and excitement. Begin with the freshwater exhibits housed in the River Journey building. Watch river otters playing in a cove forest. An alligator and giant snapping turtle will thrill in a delta swamp. Gaze in awe at fantastic seahorses and seadragons.
The adventure continues in the Ocean Journey building. Explore the chilly world of Penguins Rock, the home of amazing gentoo and macaroni penguins. Big toothy sharks and thousands of colorful reef fish swirl all around an impressive reef. Delight as a multitude of beautiful butterflies flutter throughout a tropical garden. Reach out and touch a shark or ray. Get up close to wonders of nature above and below the water. Experience two aquariums in one great city - Chattanooga.

Our new Mic Droplet podcasts give you a quick hit of science communication. The inaugural episode is a sub-10-minute explainer on leucism, a color-draining condition that makes animals from alligators to lions to orcas turn almost completely white! (And yes, it's different from albinism.)

Whether it's his projects for the giant screen or his entertaining globetrots to underwater locations all over the planet for @BlueWorldTV, we're big fans of Jonathan Bird here at the Aquarium. So it's not surprising we were incredibly pumped to get Jonathan in the studio dive cage to chat about his latest project, Call of the Dolphins 3D, which is now playing at our IMAX 3D Theater!

Think being a scientist is all working in a pristine lab or visiting beautifully exotic locales like the Amazon or the Great Barrier Reef? Welp, y'all, let's just say sometimes it comes down to strapping on waders and throwing on a polar-rated jacket to brave freezing conditions in a muddy rivulet to try and find an imperiled darter.
Doesn't make it any less meaningful — or fun — though!

Do you think you could clear your plate of 900,000 crickets if given a year? That's just one entry on the Aquarium's extensive annual grocery list. Do any of the other selections appeal to you?
