Joshua checks out the teeth of a Gar.

Gar one of the many fish in the 10,000 gallon aquarium which houses fish native to Mississippi.

It takes two to real this one in!

This was a virtual fishing experience.

As you can see the pole wasn't easy to hold with a fighting fish at the end.

Feeding the Koi.

These fish produce the feeder fish for the large inside aquarium.

These incubation jars combine the sperm and fish eggs to create the fertilized eggs.

Here are holding/rearing tanks that house waiting hatchlings and larger fish.
This was a fun experience as well as educational. I have been wanting to go for years but only thought about it when passing by on the interstate. We are looking forward to visiting again soon as they often have seasonal activities for kids.
