The treatment of the animals at the Woodbridge, NJ SeaQuest is horrific. This was the same for many other of the animals there: potbelly pigs, a sad otter, rabbits, chickens and Bengal cats. The zoo also allows patrons to pay to interact with certain animals, allowing kids to flop around with them in enclosures.
