i'd have to think the closest for me would be new orleans, san antonio. i don't know of an aquarium in little rock.
why are they protesting at aquariums? the one we went to in atlanta seemed more interested in helping preserve endangered species and helping with rescue and rehab.
sea worlds on the other hand.....

Yeah some are about rescue and rehab. I think it makes sense, in an effort to raise awareness (and to send a message) to stage protests/ educational events at the aquariums as well as the horrible places where these animals are exploited and abused.

They should do what the rhino people are planning and what walk for farm animals does and stage a sleep in / virtual walk for people out of the area.

Georgia Aquarium does a lot of good things for rescue and rehab, but after reading the entire proposal there was no way I could personally support them.

Maybe you can swim into the ocean with them when they're freed!
