Seattle Aquarium:Small But Mighty (and Way Cuter Than You’d Expect)(1)
🐠 Seattle Aquarium: Small But Mighty (and Way Cuter Than You’d Expect) 🌊 When I visited, the octopus celebrity was off-duty, but I lucked out with sea lion and river otter feedings—no staged shows, just pure enrichment chaos. 🦭 🐾 Marine Mammals Galore: Sea Lion Zone: Watch them glide through the water, then waddle ashore like drunk toddlers. 🤸 Otter Paradise: These fuzzy critters crack open clams with rocks. Pro tip: They’re loudest at feeding time—think squeaky toys on steroids. 🦦🔊 Harbor Seal vs. Steller Sea Lion: Learn to tell them apart (hint: seals have spots; sea lions have ear flaps). 🐾👂 🌺 Aquatic Wonders: Tropical Teardrop: A jellyfish gallery where bioluminescent medusae pulse like alien lanterns. 🌌🐙 Touch Tide Pools: Brave the anemone zone—their tentacles feel like squishy broccoli. Salmon Ladder: A glass-walled fish elevator shows migrating salmon leaping upstream. Nature’s obstacle course! 🐟🚧 #SeattleAquarium #OtterLove #MarineLife #TravelTips 🐠🌍
