Tourist bonanza: Beaty Biodiversity Museum

After the Museum of Anthropology, we moved onto Beaty Biodiversity Museum - which is also on UBC's campus.

It's Vancouver version of London's Natural History Museum (but on a smaller scale & minus the dinosaur exhibition).

Our visit also solved a major discussion point among our friendship group (Dan, Cathy, I'm looking at you): if a whale ate you, what would kill you?

For the record, we were all wrong.

The answer: it's dependent on the type of whale but if it was the blue whale (in the picture above), its tongue would crush you. Not a happy ending for Pinocchio:
