Welcome to Oceans presented by Old National Bank

Opening on May 26, Oceans presented by  Old National Bank is an experience Zoo visitors will not want to miss.  As the name implies, the focus is those huge bodies of sea water that cover seven tenths of our world, and which are collectively refer to as the oceans. The former World of Waters Building closed in August 2006 to begin its transformation into the new exhibit.  Zoo visitors who were familiar with the building as it was will find that walls and ceilings have been blown apart, pathways have been rearranged and even floors have been changed in their elevation.

In the Oceans exhibit that replaced the World of Waters Building, visitors will see a diverse collection of animals of unusual shapes or brilliant colors that represent startling skills and unusual lifestyles.  But in Oceans, they will do much more than see fascinating specimens. In a visually stimulating environment, minimally they will also hear and touch.  Maybe they will go farther still and speak with available staff members or express their opinion at interactive polling stations.  Here visitors will find the inspiration to ponder their personal relationship with the ocean planet – our Earth.
