Seattle Aquarium Demo
Please Join NARN and other animal advocates for a demo in front of the Seattle Aquarium. We will be there to educate the public about the following:
– SEA aquarium’s practice of imprisoning multiple wild-caught Octopuses every year. (Show your love for Octopuses by getting your shirt here: )
– SEA’s currently under construction, potentially unsafe tank for Sharks, Rays, and other tropical Fish, likely captured in the wild from the South Pacific
– how hundreds of animals have been left to suffer and die in a warehouse in South Seattle
Taxpayer dollars, a lot of which had been taken from funds intended to support critical infrastructure and housing, have been used to fund the aquarium, including $20M given to the new shark tank being built on the waterfront.
Animals don’t deserve to be captured and imprisoned for a few moments of entertainment.
We will have leaflets and signs, but please feel free to make and bring your own. Learn more about NARN’s campaign here: https://narn.org/shark-tank-campaign/
Please try to carpool (check discussion tab!) and allow for time to get there as parking will be a challenge
