The Aquarium opened its newest exhibit, Animal Planet Australia: Wild Extremes, December 16, 2005.
Visitors journey through an expansive rock gorge typical of those found in Australia’s Northern Territory, becoming immersed in the colors, textures and sounds of this little-known region.Colorful birds like rainbow lorikeets, cockatoos and finches soar overhead. Free-roaming lizards bask on sun-warmed rocks, and guests come nose to snout with freshwater crocodiles.
