Aquarium animals being used as pawns in lease dispute, Port Marlborough boss says

In his first interview since the announcement, Port Marlborough chief executive Rhys Welbourn said the port was “incredibly disappointed” that EcoWorld director John Reuhman was using the animals as “pawns in his game”. The port had been told by mana whenua, the Department of Conservation, and the Zoo and Aquarium Association that the aquarium could be cleared without its animals being euthanised. The creatures could be released or rehomed. “The future for the animals is a decision for EcoWorld, but we are working with the Zoo and Aquarium Association Australasia (ZAA) to assist with solutions for the re-homing or release of the animals where required,” Welbourn said.
