Pull on a pair of our tall rubber boots and go behind the scenes to experience what it's like to be a marine mammal trainer at the Shedd Aquarium.

You'll assist a trainer with daily routines and experience several training and feeding sessions. From the Oceanarium kitchen, where meals for four dozen animals are prepared every day, to reserve areas, to poolside in a habitat, you'll see what it takes to care for the belugas, dolphins, sea otters, sea lions and penguins.

Along with the memories you take home, you'll reeceive a photo of yourself during a training session with a whale or dolphin.
