Whales: Giants Of The Deep Opens At DMNS In October
DENVER (CBS4) - The skeleton of a 58-foot sperm whale is one of 20 whale specimens that will be shown as part of a new exhibition at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science that opens next month.
The exhibit, called Whales: Giants of the Deep, is on tour from the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, which boasts one of the largest collections of marine mammals in the world.
The exhibit will also feature life-sized models, digital interactives and rare artifacts. DMNS said visitors can crawl through a life-sized replica of a blue whale's heart, touch whale teeth and hear the sounds whales use to navigate, communicate and find food.
The exhibit opens Oct. 10 and is free with museum admission.
