Adopt a Shark
They have a reputation as cold-blooded eating machines, but sharks have needs too! Mote’s shark habitat requires precise heating, cooling and lighting as we try to emulate their natural water conditions. Mote’s sharks are trained to follow feeding routines so that we can insure that they each get proper nutrition. |
