Owen Industries is excited to be a part of the Henry Doorly Zoo’s new state of-of-the-art exhibit, Owen Sea Lion Shores!
The project includes a 40-foot-long underwater viewing window, realistic Pacific Ocean atmosphere with heated rocks, sandy beaches, underwater kelp forest and a 275,000-gallon saltwater pool.
Owen Industries was also a part of the original sea lion facility built in 1972. Click on the link below for more information on the original sea lion exhibit.
