Whale Bone Restoration project

Donated Fin Whale bones
Sun bleached and severely weathered

Some tall ribs waiting to be restored...

Just wanted to post a quick update on the whale bone restoration! The bones are in pretty good shape overall, but some have certainly seen better days! We will be having a get together of volunteers to restore the bones (Museum restorer Michael Lee has given direction on how to do this process) sometime soon! I have included a few photos with the bones showing some of the cracks and weathering! We take these bones out to the schools and it is always a big hit with the kids!
