W007, a successful chapter in aquarium history. *claps* I wanted to see that girl, but there wasn't any chances of that being on the other side of the country. Glad it turned out great, and hopefully she's helped people better understand sharks.

Sweet, I hope it lives a good life out where it belongs

As an animal lover I'm not opposed to places like these (as long as they're given good living conditions) because they educate people. Kids go along and fall in love with these creatures and then may grow up to be another Jacques Cousteau, the world's sea life needs more of these sort of people

I'm glad I saw it before it was released. It's also good that it was released, since permanent residence just wasn't a reasonable option at all. Hopefully people will continue to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium, even if its star attraction is gone. It's still worth the trip down there.


They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes,
They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver,
So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.
