Mascots needed for Miami Seaquarium Easter celebration
If your parents told you your career at Chuck E. Cheese was a dead end, you can finally flaunt your possibilities. The Miami Seaquarium is ready to make your dreams come true. Its annual Easter Egg Hunt Celebration starts Friday, April 10, 2009 and runs through Sunday, April 12. To make the event come to life, the Seaquarium needs mascots, and that's where you get involved.You can bring your own costume! The celebration is open to mascots of all kinds. Throw your funny animal into the mix, and you'll get to ride in a truck every day at 11 AM for a special ceremony – along with famous Miami Seaquarium personalities such as Flipper the dolphin, Lolita the killer whale, Roc the crocodile and Maime the manatee. You won't be the guest of honor though. Come on, how could you upstage the Easter Bunny?! To assume your spot, you'll have to get to the park a half hour before the festivities begin.
For those not dressed for the affair, the Easter Egg Hunt activities start at 10 AM and run until 4 PM.

Too bad Miami Seaquarium abuses their animals.
Their killer whale, Lolita, is currently being kept in a tank so small, it is illegal to APHIS standards. The park is NOT approved by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums and it's very run-down. The whale tank is the size of a hotel swimming pool - it's 35 ft wide, when the orca is 22 feet long! It's only one and a half times her size.
Not to mention, Seaquarium has captured dozens of dolphins, whales, sea lions and other marine animals from their families/homes in the wild to make profits off them!
