| A Skeletal Specimen of a Precious Baby Humpback Whale | ||
| The skeleton of the infant humpback whale washed
ashore on Hanari Island. The baby whale seems to have lost its sense of
direction due to its ears being invaded by parasites. This caused it to
go astray from its mother. The Village has completed the reconstruction
specimen of the whale to preserve the precious skeleton and it is now on
display at our village Material Exhibition Hall. (5 meters in length and 1 ton in weight) |
