Sharks & Otters & Alligators...Oh MY!

Welcome to the Roanoke Island Aquarium! (Featuring one of the largest ocean tanks on the East Coast!)

The otter tank- they were so happy to see people, they were showing off for us. (We were the ONLY people in the entire aquarium!) (right)
Snapping turtles- I bet you didn't know that they can attack an alligator, and win! (left)

I'm not sure who had more fun...us or the little one.
