Meet Foggy the Cape Forchu Whale! In December 2020, after an online contest where the public could submit name suggestions for the display on Facebook, the name Foggy was chosen as the winner!

The 50’ whale skeleton was donated by boat builder Stephen Goreham who found the carcass in 2006 on an island off of Woods Harbour, NS.
