A new Shark mascot had become a face of the newly renovated Aquarium Pyramid at Moody Gardens. Until the Summer of 2017, it lacked a name. As part of a promotion for the summer attractions season the mascot was taken around Galveston Island, with it’s whereabouts shared via Social Media. Later, we took to Facebook to vote between 4 options as a name for the mascot.

“Finn” was decided as the winner at the conclusion of Shark Week.
