Does anyone know the species of sharks exhibited at Sea World on the Gold Coast? Is it true they exhibit great hammerhead sharks in Shark Bay? Has anyone been to Shark bay, how does it compare to the shark exhibits at the US Seaworlds?
There are currently 13 species of sharks on display in Shark Bay, including one Scalloped Hammerhead Shark Sphyrna lewini. I haven't seen many other large shark exhibits in US facilities, but this is certainly the best of the few that I've seen. It's huge, clean, deep and the animals all appear to be very settled and comfortable. The exhibit is completely open to the environment, so the animals all receive natural light cycles.
Does anyone know if they still exhibit the Tiger and Bull Sharks? I have not heard or seen of them much in a while... Last time I looked the website did not highlight there presence, Anyone know whats been happening?
And it isn't kept in shark bay, I don't think. When I was there last it was kept in a small pool off to the side of the main lake.
