I know the zoo needs to create excitement to draw visitors, but a the poor stingrays and sharks live a pathetic life swimming around and around a temporary pool in fake sea water. Makes me sad.

Seeing animals in an artificial, confined and static environment is more sad then it is informative. Now they are being subjected to unwanted human contact. Once a zoo loses an animal due to negligence, that exhibit should be closed down for good. In this case they lost 19 but apparently that's little importance to Brookfield.
