Painstaking care has been taken to recreate the natural environments for the 8000 plus marine species that dwell in the Vancouver Aquarium Marine Science Centre. In the Amazon rain forest gallery you will find yourself in a jungle setting inhabited by human-sized freshwater fish, three-toed sloths, piranhas, brilliant blue and green poison tree frogs, and tropical birds and vegetation. Witness the indigenous sea life of coastal British Columbia and Pacific Canada, such as Pacific salmon and the giant Pacific octopus. Stately angelfish swim through coral reef, and blacktip reef sharks comb the waters of the Tropical Gallery. The Canadian Arctic exhibit has massive tanks with great windows to view Beluga Whales whistling and blowing water.
