  • IDAHO FALLS -- Six former employees say the East Idaho Aquarium seriously mistreated many animals in its care, which resulted in more than 2,000 animal deaths in the past five years. Aquarium management, however, says the facility has made dramatic improvements in the last two years, reducing mortalities more than 73% between 2021 and 2023.
    The aquarium is home to 2,143 animals and 204 species. More than 100,000 annual visitors can touch and feed stingrays, giant river fish, saltwater fish, trout, iguanas and more.
    East Idaho Aquarium Executive Director Arron Faires and marketing representative Ryan Joos share the aquarium’s story, respond to allegations of animal mistreatment from whistleblowers and PETA and describe significant steps the aquarium has taken to improve how it cares for its animals.

    anytime animals are used for entertainment, the animals are always the losers.

      And if zoos didn't exist many animals would have gone extinct.
