Visitors will see life-size and scale models of whales common to the South Pacific.

The Whale Lab is full of interactive science. Children can crawl through a life-size replica of the largest living creature's heart – the blue whale. The extraordinary evolutionary journey of whales from land to the sea is shown by casts of fossil whale ancestors. Animated renderings of these early forebears show how the transition of leaving the land and completely adapting to a life in the sea.
