The exhibits, each of them have own stories of it. For example, ‘Life on the Edge’ allows guests to experience the tide pool life in the Seattle's inland sea and in the outer coast of Washington. Big video screens assist demonstrate the only one of its kind lifestyles of the remarkable creatures who not only continue to exist, but flourish in the insensitive environmental circumstances of Washington's tidal zones.
