FYI for anyone who keeps up with such things.

I recently was told by an employee of the Dallas Aquarium at Fair Park that
the facility will be closing. It appears to be mostly financial (Dallas is
having a rough time of it financially speaking) and partly because the
Aquarium could keep the Dallas Zoo from maintaining its American Zoo and
Aquarium (AZA) accreditation. We lost the Fort Worth Zoo's aquarium earlier
this year.
