How do you prepare a gourmet meal for sharks, rays, and seahorses?
In short: J. Kenji López-Alt visits the Seattle Aquarium's offsite Animal Care Center to observe the specialized process of preparing food for marine life. This look behind the scenes reveals the meticulous care required to nurture creatures before they transition to the new Ocean Pavilion.
The Seattle Aquarium operates a massive warehouse facility dedicated to rearing and nurturing aquatic animals. This offsite center serves as a critical nursery where species, including sharks, rays, and seahorses, are prepared for their eventual move into the aquarium's new Ocean Pavilion.
The video documents Kenji's visit to this facility, where he shadows the animal care team. By examining how these experts manage nutrition and feeding protocols, the footage offers a rare glimpse into the logistical and biological precision required to maintain marine health outside of the public-facing exhibits.
