ClickerExpo faculty member Ken Ramirez was recently featured on the Today show demonstrating an exciting new program at the Shedd Aquarium. The new program at the Shedd Aquarium, where Ken is vice president of animal collections and training, allows people to get up close and personal with the aquarium's beluga whales. Although the experience comes with a price tag, some ClickerExpo and KPCT staff who got a special visit with the whales called the experience priceless.

I did get the chance to try this with Ken and Kayavak, and it was an amazing experience. I had always preferred the flashier dolphins and orcas to the more sedate belugas and other whales, but I really do feel a new appreciation after time spent observing training and then experiencing this close encounter. :)
