Baltimore Aquarium - 4/11/15

This is a crocodile - not sure which kind.


This adorable lady was showing / teaching how to tell the difference between crocodiles & alligators. Crocodiles = you can see all of their teeth & they have narrower snouts // Alligators = you can't see all of their teeth, and their heads are more U shaped. 

**Just a tip for visiting the Aquarium - if you see someone standing by an exhibit in a blue Aquarium shirt don't be afraid to ask them any questions you may have. They know their stuff there.
For example - there was one shark fenced off from the others, and we weren't sure why. I asked an Aquarium employee and they said that it's because it's shark breeding season & they don't want their sharks to breed.
ALSO - if you don't see an animal that you're hoping to see (say the
Wobbegong Shark), ask someone in a blue Aquarium shirt. They know where some animals like to "hide", and will show you where they are.**




This is a Spotted Unicornfish. You can't really see it here, but there is a horn growing out of the front of its head.


The Puffins were sleeping. _pout_
