LONG BEACH, CALIF. -- WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 15, 2020: A child interacts with an endangered adult giant sea bass in the Blue Cavern in the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach. The Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach has partnered with academic institutions and organizations to create a "report card" detailing the conservation story of roughly 30 marine species. The project is an effort to refocus conservation on individual species - which regular people can connect to - while critiquing a modern trend of taking a big-picture ecosystem approach. Many of the species in the report card can be found at the aquarium, which is also involved in helping conserve some of the ones that have declined, including white abalone and bull kelp.
