LEOPARD SHARK TANK IS NOT A TOUCH TANK!
HEY! This is very important, and I want to make sure you're aware, but I visited the Monterey Bay Aquarium recently and I want to make it clear that this specific tank WAS NOT A TOUCH TANK. They do have other touch tanks, but when I asked, they said this one with the leopard sharks and ducks was strictly off-limits, and if they catch anyone with their hands in this tank, they will be removed from the Aquarium. It was still an awesome place and totally worth the visit, but I wanted to make sure everyone who does go will get to enjoy their visit and won't be asked to leave.
