Chart Room | 31 May to 14 June
The Sustainability Sub‑Committee will host an event to celebrate World Oceans Day. We have arranged a Whale Bone Exhibition in the Chart Room from 31 May to 14 June . The original skeleton came from a fin whale calf that wandered into Victoria Harbour in 1955; the bones were displayed at Cape D’Aguilar. The original Cape D’Aguilar whale skeleton was badly damaged during Super Typhoon Mangkhut in 2018. The replacement replica was created by a Chinese firm that normally specialises in dinosaur skeletons for theme parks and museums.
