In July of 2024, the Aquarium of Niagara opened Great Lakes 360, a new expansion dedicated to showcasing the fish, reptiles, and amphibians that call the Great Lakes home.
“Aquariums are really good at connecting people to habitats that they may never have been to before and that are found all over the world. But lots of us tend to take for granted the species that are in our own backyard,” said Chad Fifer, president and CEO of the Aquarium of Niagara.
The expansion is home to 16 new exhibits, including a chance for visitors to touch a lake sturgeon.
