About the Business

Right Whale Exhibit Museum - Red Bay - Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada | Come visit our whale exhibit to gain a deeper understanding of Right Whales. The almost complete skeleton on display dates back to the 16th century when whalers from Europe hunted whales for the fat that could be rendered into oil. The exhibit features panels that tell the story of the eating, mating and migration patterns of the whales. Then you can learn about ongoing research and protection measures to protect the remaining but endangered population of right whales and how you might help.

Detailed yet readable story about the right and bowhead whales.

This is the smallest of 3 'Museums' in the local community hall, but then Red Bay is a very small community. It will tell you everything you need to know about Right Whales - called that because they were the most profitable ones for the early whalers to catch.
