The Whale Interpretive Centre

The Whale Interpretive Centre, located in Telegraph Cove, British Columbia, is home to the largest public collection of marine mammal skeletons in British Columbia. Founded in 2002, the WIC aims to raise public awareness about marine mammal biology and the threats these creatures face. Johnstone Strait Killer Whale Interpretive Centre Society, established in 1993, manages the WIC as a registered charitable organization.

The WIC is a land-based interpretive center recommended by the Johnstone Strait Killer Whale Committee. Directors like Jim Borrowman, Marie Fournier, and Dr. John Ford bring expertise in marine biology and cetacean research to the organization. The WIC's collection includes unique specimens like the Minke whale and Risso's dolphin, offering educational opportunities for visitors to learn about these fascinating creatures.
