For those that may be interested, a new study on UK public aquaria has
been recently published by two British organisations.
The Captive Animals’ Protection Society published one study
referring the whole of the UK public aquarium industry, and it can be
seen at:
http://www.captiveanimals.org/aquarium/suffering.htm
Advocates for Animals publish the other study referring only to
Scottish public aquaria, and it can be seen at:
http://www.advocatesforanimals.org/campaigns/captive/aquaticparks/beyondtheglass.html
Both studies are interrelated, and focus mainly on fish and/or aquatic
invertebrates (covering issues such as abnormal behaviour, animal
welfare, health, conservation, education, research, contact with
humans and even aquarium design)
