Palm Beach County Aquarium

This is a new public aquarium that should be twice as big as the Georgia Aquarium, making it the largest public aquarium in the world, at 850,000 square feet. It should be located within Downtown West Palm Beach replacing where the original public library used to be located and covering up the harbor area near Flagler Memorial Bridge. It should have eight sections: Florida Bay, Rivers and Lakes of the World, Wonders of the Amazon, Cold Water Expedition, Tropical Reef Quest, Tropical Coasts and Islands, Marine Mammal Experience & Stadium, Hammerhead Shipwreck, and the largest, Ocean Rhythms, with a 150-foot-long tunnel and the world's largest viewing window. It should also two outdoor areas outside of "Rivers and Lakes of the World" and "Tropical Coasts and Islands", complete with exhibits for beavers, Nile hippos, gharials, Oriental small-clawed otters, Hawaiian monk seals, little penguins, American white pelicans, Caribbean flamingoes, nenes, saltwater crocodiles, Cuban crocodiles, and an interactive feeding lorikeet aviary with rainbow lorikeets, along with climate-controlled indoor exhibits for polar bears, walruses, sea otters, and Antarctic penguins, and indoor stadiums featuring performing bottlenose dolphins and California sea lions. Plus, "Cold Water Expedition" should have 12 robotic models of extinct animals: a Steller's sea cow mom and calf, a spectacled cormorant, a sea mink, and a flock of eight great auks, and "Tropical Coasts and Islands" should also have robotic models of extinct animals: two adult dodos and a dodo nest, an elephant bird, a Malagasy dwarf hippo, a Rodriguez greater tortoise, a kawekaweau, and a Caribbean monk seal. It will be the only other place outside of Hawaii (the first being Minnesota Zoo) to have Hawaiian monk seals on exhibit.
