A Thousand Names On One Seal

The Huntsman Marine Science Centre now has around $5,000 and 1,000 names on their new seal donor wall.

The non-profit aquarium in Saint Andrews received five dollar donations throughout the year from kids so their names could be put on the giant seal picture. Aquarium Manager Jim Cornell tells CHSJ news the donations go towards upkeep for tanks, hyrdo and food among other things.



Cornell says they had so much success with their first seal donor wall, that they decided to start another one. He laughs and says he's pretty sure adults, pets and even Harry Potter references have sneaked their way onto the wall.

The second seal donor wall joins last years picture on the deck outside of the science centre.
