Salt, the inflatable humpback whale
Donation protected
The New England Coastal Wildlife Alliance (NECWA) is raising funds to purchase a professionally made inflatable humpback whale. This whale is a life-sized replica of Salt, the humpback whale, so the model will be 45 feet long.
Students of all ages and the public will be able to tour Salt from inside and out! A flap in the fabric on the side of the model allows folks to walk inside Salt and get an amazing perception of her size from the inside.
The company that will create this model, Landmark Creations, will also sew various internal organs onto the inner fabric so kids can see the placement of her lungs, stomachs (whales have 3!) and vertebra (backbone).
NECWA is an all-volunteer non-profit organization based in southeatern MA. We are a grassroots group of scientists, educators, students, and professionals within the community who devote our efforts to better understand and protect the coastal marine wildlife of New England.
Help NECWA better connect with kids of all ages by providing presentations, both school and public, that include this amazing life-sized model of Salt, the most famous humpback whale off Cape Cod.
