This Weeks Questions:
Don: Hi Connor and Maya! Hope you're doing well. Maya often gets asked how she feels about Zoos but I don't believe I've heard either of you speak on aquariums. How ethical are aquariums? Specifically commercial aquariums that house sharks, whales, dolphins, etc. Larger marine life essentially.
Jbubble: Gun to your head, you have to choose your favorite ambassador. (The other animals won't know, but the guilt for not choosing them will still consume you internally)
Darkrow: On the topics of wildlife habitat restoration or habitat conservation, which books would you recommend and why?
Phoenickes: Are there any benefits of “traditional conservation education” that you haven’t seen transfer to the Alveus model? If you could, would you want to transfer any of those benefits over?
Jbubble: Maya, do you think sexism has ever made work for Alveus difficult? For example, we had a year where our marching band was getting pretty good scores. However, at championships, we got last place with an unusually low score, all because our band director was a woman, and a judge didn't like that.

the touch tank at the zoo near me requires you to wash up to your elbows before being allowed to touch any of the rays which I think should be mandatory as well.
