It is the goal of The Dallas World Aquarium to instill the desire to understand our environment and the importance of conserving and protecting Earth's resources.

The Dallas World Aquarium is committed to a number of conservation programs, both small and large scale.

Working with the National Marine Fisheries and Hawaii's Sea Life Park, The Dallas World Aquarium acts as a foster parent to young Green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) in the Head Start Program. Every two to three years a pair of young hatchlings is sent to the Aquarium where they live until they are large enough to survive on their own. The Green sea turtles are then returned to Hawaii for release back into their natural habitat.
