Talk to your pals back at the old aquarium. They might be interested in offering you a paid position now that you've cut your teeth a little, and the bama aquarium didn't burst into flames.
Personal connections and networking seem to be the hugest part of getting a job, which is a pain in the ass for merit oriented people, but if it pays the bills, work those connections. Didn't you work with the penguin king, etc? in the least if you could get them to put in a good word, or right a letter of commendation, you might get a bit of an advantage.
They know how much I want to work there, and they've all promised to write me letters of rec, put in a good word and be my references when a spot opens up.
I'm sorry things are so crappy :( I hope you find a new job soon. That's awful that people won't help you take care of the animals better - I think it would eat me up inside knowing I could give them better conditions and having people prevent me from doing that.
