Episode 89
This isn't just a zoo tour, it's not just an aquarium tour but it's the first episode that can be considered both! The Pittsburgh Zoo's PPG Aquarium opened in 1967, Pennsylvania's first aquarium and at the time the country's second largest. Revolutionary to its era - after receiving a major upgrade decades later, it remains to be one of the few and one of the better zoo aquariums out there. In this two story, 45,000 square foot facility, we'll pass through five underwater realms: freshwater, coldwater, coral reef, open ocean, and the tropical rainforest. The journey includes a rescued sea turtle, a fish powerful enough to electrocute a horse, penguins, waves that crash over our heads, sharks of the shallows and I even briefly discuss the life of the last Amazon River dolphin in the United States.
