1. Alaska SeaLife Center
Alaska SeaLife Center, Seward, Alaska
The SeaLife Center is first and foremost a rehab center, formed after the Exxon Valdez spill. Today, it serves as a sperior demonstration of Alaska's maritime life including a phenomenal display of Alaskan sea birds and interactive tanks of anemone and other primitive sea life. The marine mammals provide a great display of the variety of life to found off of Alaska's coast. It's a little pricy to get in, but it is well worth it at the tip of Kenai Penninsula.
2. San Francisco Zoo
San Francisco Zoo, San Francisco, California
The San Francisco Zoo does a great job of providing space and a natural sort of environment for its animals. In particular, the grizzly bear and savannah exhibits provided great space for the animals to explore and interact with one another in a natural manner. The down side is that it creates issues for the viewing of these animals.
3. Shedd Aquarium
Shedd Aquarium, Chicago, Illinois
The Shedd as its affectionately known is half old school aquarium with row after row of animals in flat glass tanks and half open air modern aquarium including belugas and other marine mammals. A favorite of mine as a kid was the large center tank including sharks and other large fish, especially at feeding time.
