For those who may be interested, a new study on UK public aquaria has
been recently published by two UK groups.
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 published 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 related, and focus mainly on fish and/or aquatic
invertebrates, both marine and freshwater (covering issues such as
abnormal behaviour, animal welfare, health, conservation, education,
research, contact with humans and even aquarium design)
