The University of British Columbia today officially opened the Beaty Biodiversity Centre, new home to some of the world’s top biodiversity researchers and Canada’s largest blue whale skeleton exhibit.
Twenty-three years after it washed up on the coast of Prince Edward Island, the skeleton of a 25-metre blue whale will embark on its final journey at sea tomorrow before arriving at its permanent home as the centerpiece of the UBC Beaty Biodiversity Museum.
