This campaign didn't go out without serious debate. Both sides made good points and here it is. But now with all the media interest has lead to more shark-positive stories like this one:

Plus we had an 8,000 visitor day recently (good for a facility our size), and each of those visitors heard over and over again about the importance of shark conservation.

Way to go Jives! Thats great! I've always loved museums, aquaria and zoos and know they instilled in me a sense of awe for natural history as a kid. Its great to see these institutions evolve and work hard to reach out to people.
