Jack begins his journey to encounter Marine pets!
Marine: Hawksbill Turtle
Flying through the warm salty sea, gliding effortlessly, twirling playfully in the surf, these little sea turtles are the darling of the depths!

@ Marine: Jelly Fish

Purple Flower Power Egg
My pets are in awe of these beautiful eggs—they would love to try to paint their own one year. Easter and spring are times of joy as the earth awakens, plants are pushing forth from the soil, and the days are becoming warmer. Many baby animals are born in the spring, and life is burgeoning. May these eggs bring you joy and be a reminder of the earth renewing itself.

Marine: Jelly Fish
Bobbing and floating in the ocean's currents, watch carefully to stay away from the flowing tentacles!

@ Marine: Star Fish Twins
Both snuggle and Jack loved the scenery at the next stop, and they both enjoyed introducing themselves to their new friend, who had been waiting to meet them!
Marine: Star Fish Twins
Twinsies! Can you tell us apart? No? No worries, neither can we!

@ Marine: Sea Horse
"I think there'll be quite a few tired paws, wings and flippers when we get back to the tour bus," said Rainz, after she and Jack had spent some time exploring another rural pathway to its end and meeting nearby inhabitants.
"Is there a gift shop at the end?" enquired Jack. "The thought of that generally keeps me going."
Marine: Sea Horse
If I just hang on lightly, I can catch those little tidbits floating on by. I blend right into the sea grasses, no one will suspect a thing!

@ Marine: Humboldt Penguins
“Whatever were those screaming noises you were making earlier, Dave?" exclaimed Jack.
Dave looked embarrassed. "That wasn't screaming. That was me, er, singing, to enable the safari guide to find me when I couldn't find my way out of that cave!"
Marine: Humboldt Penguins
Waddling in the cool waters off the coast of South Africa, dressed up in their best black tie, the little penguins keep a sharp eye out on the waves, you never know when you'll have a surprise visitor!

@ Marine: Humboldt Penguins on the Beach
"Hey, you should have joined Foxy and me for lunch at that café, Jack!" said Arthur.
"Oh, I couldn't resist going to that street exhibition of art by local pets. I grabbed a cheese and onion pasty from a street vendor. Anyway, what did you both have to eat?"
"We had celery soup and a sandwich each. It was great!" responded Arthur.
Marine: Humboldt Penguins on the Beach
Who's going in first? I know, we'll get Mikey to! Mikey'll try anything! Go Mikey! Let us know how cold the surf is!

@ Marine: Mandarin Duck Pairs.
Tiger studied the itinerary thoughtfully for some time. “There's a lion-tailed macaque and a lion-headed goldfish,” she remarked. “Do you think there's a lion-tummied creature that we'll meet?”
Jack snorted. "That's you, judging by how you're packing away that popcorn, Tiger!"
Marine: Mandarin Duck Pairs.
I'll be your wingman! Two good lookin' guys on the prowl searching for that perfect lady! Watching the shoreline, hoping to find the perfect mate!

@ Marine: Mallard and duckling
Jack and Hoot had shaken paws and then took some time to enjoy looking at the next creature in its habitat in a companionable silence!
Marine: Mallard and duckling
Optical illusions! The duck weed gives the impression we're swimming on solid ground, but be careful, it's all water out here! Wade in and see!

@ Marine: Red Belly Slider Turtle
Both Snowball and Jack loved the scenery at the next stop, and they both enjoyed introducing themselves to their new friend, who had been waiting to meet them!
Marine: Red Belly Slider Turtle
Gonna soak up the sun! Grab your kayak and paddle slowly, or you'll miss me basking on the lilies growing in the stagnant waters! Get too close and watch me plop and swim quickly!

@ Marine: Sea Otter Floating
“Have you seen those fabulous pink and white flamingo suncatchers in the giftshop, Jack?” asked Ari. “I'm going to buy one as a souvenir of our time here!”
“Sounds great!” responded Jack.

Marine: Sea Otter Floating
Is there anything cuter than an otter floating on the gentle sea waves? Maybe two!

@ Marine: Mandarin Ducks
Solo was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as Jack unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which he succeeded in knocking Solo’s sunhat off.
“Put that away, do!” said Solo, in some irritation. “We’re about to pose with this amazing creature—the picture will be of your map if you don’t fold it up pronto!”
Marine: Mandarin Ducks
Skimming along the glassy water surface the ducks bob under the surface nibbling on plants and marine life.

@ Marine: Baby Otter Close Up
"Wasn’t it worth coming all this way, Jack," said Frizzle, "for this experience alone?" Jack, admiring the creature at the centre of the scene they were now in, heartily agreed!
Marine: Baby Otter Close Up
Romping around on land, one look into my cute button eyes, and I will be your favorite mammal of all time!

Image 13/29

@ Marine: Crocodile
Jack and Charbon had shaken paws and were now introducing themselves to the next critter who had come to meet them on this leg of the quest, who was eager to make friends and to show off a carefully tidied natural habitat!
Marine: Crocodile
Barely cracking the glossy surface, my stealth mode is millions of years in the making! Some say I'm still left from the dinosaurs, but we both know that I'm just perfect and never needed to change!

Image 14/29

@ Marine: Flamingos Bobbing
Cuddles studied the itinerary thoughtfully for some time. “There's a lion-tailed macaque and a lion-headed goldfish,” she remarked. “Do you think there's a lion-tummied creature that we'll meet?”
Jack snorted. "That's you, judging by how you're packing away that popcorn, Cuddles!"
Marine: Flamingos Bobbing
Delicious shrimps! Just under the surface, tasty little crustaceans, and for their gratitude for nibbling them, they've turned me pink!

@ Marine: Puffins at the Cliff
Oh look ... you won a pet!
Marine: Puffins at the Cliff
Just hanging out, standing on the cliff, waiting to glide on the currents!

@ Marine: Fiddler Crab
"It's turned a bit hot, Jack. I'm going to put my sunhat on," said Sweetie pie.
"Good scheme! I'll dig mine out as well," said Jack.
Marine: Fiddler Crab
I can fiddle but don't ask me to play the saxophone!

@ Marine: Baby Leatherback Turtle
“I'm starving!” exclaimed Jack. "What's Chef making us tonight?"
Mister glanced up from his tour guide, in which he had been looking up where they were going the next day. “How come you're so hungry, Jack?”
Jack pouted. "I was just unwrapping my lunch pack when a creature ran down the tree behind me, grabbed the lot and shot back up the tree!"
"Bad luck!" sympathised Mister. "Here, have a banana to keep you going."

Marine: Baby Leatherback Turtle
The longest journey starts with one step! But this journey is not only long, but watch how fast I go! That shadow overhead just was the incentive I needed to kick it into high gear!

@ Marine: Seal Basking in the Sun
“Shall we take a selfie?” Jack asked Wawatay as they drank in the scenery and admired their new friend standing between them.
Marine: Seal Basking in the Sun
Basking away in the sun all day is the perfect day for me! Some say it's April 25th but I'll stick to all days with sun!

@ Marine: Starfish in the Tidepool
"I think there'll be quite a few tired paws, wings and flippers when we get back to the tour bus," said Choose a name, after she and Jack had spent some time exploring another rural pathway to its end and meeting nearby inhabitants.
"Is there a gift shop at the end?" enquired Jack. "The thought of that generally keeps me going."
Marine: Starfish in the Tidepool
Stars may shine above you, but don't forget to explore the tidepools at your feet! There's one now, slowly creeping along with all five legs!

@ Marine: Egret on the Shore
“Have you seen those fabulous pink and white flamingo suncatchers in the giftshop, Jack?” asked tigg. “I'm going to buy one as a souvenir of our time here!”
“Sounds great!” responded Jack.

Marine: Egret on the Shore
Why, there's no "r-egret" when you meet an Egret!

@ Marine: Humboldt Penguin Swimming
“Do you remember our last safari, Choose a name?” exclaimed Jack. "I remember being really quite scared, trying to find the way out of that labyrinth in the dark!"
Choose a name agreed. “D'you remember that scorpion? It was quite a shock coming across him in the light of the dim and flaring lamps, although he turned out to be very nice in the end.”
"It's hard to believe that was two years ago, Choose a name," remarked Jack.
Marine: Humboldt Penguin Swimming
Oh yeah, you're jealous! Look at this treasure I found while swimming along, I'm using it in my next nest!

@ Marine: Lionfish
Jack and Peaksy had shaken paws and were now introducing themselves to the next critter who had come to meet them on this leg of the quest, who was eager to make friends and to show off a carefully tidied natural habitat!
Marine: Lionfish
Patrolling the reef, and fanning out my impressive fins, I am the lion of the sea!

@ Marine: Goldfish Bubbles
Jack was excited to meet up again with Hermione. They both took a moment to admire the amazing scene around them.
Marine: Goldfish Bubbles
Goldfish bobbing at the surface bubbling bubbles at the surface!

Image 24/29

@ Marine: Yellow Fish
"Hey there, Jack! Did you hear how Fresco fell off the landing stage into the sea while trying to get a better view of one of the creatures?"
"He was still squelching when he got back on the tour bus, Butterscotch!"
Marine: Yellow Fish
Do you see the bubbles? I don't see the bubbles! Who moved the bubbles? Check the seaweed! I need my bubbles!

Image 25/29

@ Marine: Lionhead Goldfish
“How do you do?” said Jack to their amazing and friendly new acquaintance on their mini-safari, shaking paws.
Josie chipped in. “It’s so kind of you to allow us to visit you in your habitat. Jack and I—and all the rest of us, of course!—are enjoying our mini-safari very much indeed!”
Marine: Lionhead Goldfish
Do you see the resemblance? I don't! I am hairless. Seriously, I just don't see that I look like a lion. Maybe it's my R-O-A-R? Scary, isn't it?

@ Marine: Sea Squirts
"Hey, you should have joined Foxy and me for lunch at that café, Jack!" said Rainbow.
"Oh, I couldn't resist going to that street exhibition of art by local pets. I grabbed a cheese and onion pasty from a street vendor. Anyway, what did you both have to eat?"
"We had celery soup and a sandwich each. It was great!" responded Rainbow.
Marine: Sea Squirts
Translucent in color, these colorful creatures anchor themselves to the roots and rocks in the warm waters in the Indian River. Just don't startle them, they don't respond well!

Image 27/29

@ Marine: Dolphins in the Surf
“Great to see you again, Seth Freakin'Monkey!” cried Jack. “I don't think we've met since we bumped into each other in Canada this time last year. This is quite a different excursion, isn't it?”
"It is, indeed!" declared Seth Freakin'Monkey.
Marine: Dolphins in the Surf
Frolicking close to shore, these incredibly smart dolphins entertain by just the sheer joy of leaping in the surf!

Image 28/29

@ Marine: Puffin
Icicle groaned, clutching her stomach. "Oh, my poor tum. Why are so many of these places only accessible by boat? I've never been a good sailor, you know."
"Never mind, Icicle," sympathised Jack. "It's ages till we set off back, and with lots of walking around visiting the different creatures, you'll feel as right as rain in no time!"
Marine: Puffin
Taking off from the water's surface, puffins are sometimes confused with penguins, which, they consider a compliment!

@ Marine: Little White Fish
Jack has now met enough "Marine" pets to last a lifetime. As he exits the experience, he receives a wonderful gift!
Frosted Azure Waterfall
The pristine waters fall freely, yet the last frost of the season delicately coats the top of each tier, adding an otherworldly glow as the sun refracts off them.

Marine: Little White Fish
Slippery fish, slippery fish! Swimming in the waters!
Jack has enjoyed meeting "Marine" pets, but it is time to go home now! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can also meet pets of every shape and size!
