Meet Our Rescued Marine Mammals

The Aquarium of Niagara happily opens its doors to rescued marine mammals with all conditions from blindness to chronic seizures to missing flippers. Our mission is to give them a fulfilled second chance at life, while educating the public about the plights aquatic animals face and how we can all work together to help.
