Spring Break Fascination and Fun

Did you know that a sloth only goes to the bathroom once a week? Or that a penguin has fleshy hooks on its tongue? These are just some of the 50,000 creatures at the Vancouver Aquarium, where weird is normal. Come and enjoy special family programs and shows including 'Meet a Penguin' or 'Shark: A 4-D Experience®'. Or maybe you'd prefer to get up close and personal with your favorite animal during an animal encounter? All of this and more at the Vancouver Aquarium this Spring Break.
