We use training and enrichment with our birds, sea otters, sharks and even fishes to collaborate with our animals on their health care and enhance their lives on exhibit.

For the first time anywhere, animal care staff at the Monterey Bay Aquarium have managed to raise the spotted comb jelly.

Sea otters are among the world’s most engaging animals. Our five fabulous exhibit animals are no exception. They’re the heart of our Aquarium animal family.

Money may not grow on trees, but sand dollars grow at the Aquarium! Get an inside look at how we culture (breed) these animals behind the scenes.
