What about if Atlantis can keep the shark, but they have to pay like $100K to marine conservation or something?
Anyway, I must say that the Atlantis aquarium gets a big fail when it comes to marine education, especially about environmental issues affecting marine ecosystems (pollution, overfishing etc). They have one little card that tells you very little about the animals in the tank, let alone any issues affecting their survival.

Fair point, maybe I was a little harsh before. If lots of people get involved and win, then they move on to looking at other marine issues then it will be a good thing.
PS: God, what an absolute Shit fight some of these threads turn into.
