Whale skeleton

Bayworld series #3: The Marine Hall is another of the Bayworld favorites. Upstairs hangs the skeleton of the last Southern Right Whale to be hunted in Algoa Bay.

  1. Living in PE in the sixties and seventies it was the Snake Park, the Oceanarium (with Haig and Dimple, the dolphins) and the Museum ( which looked just the same as your pictures). Then it was tea at the Oceana.
