Once Hong Kong's flagship theme park, Ocean Park faces an uncertain future, having requested a HK$5.4 billion bailout from the government to continue operating beyond June. The struggling amusement park has been closed to the public since January due to the coronavirus outbreak. According to the park's annual report, it had 7,600 animals including 63 marine mammals, 59 terrestrial mammals, 454 birds and others.
