Northern lights inspire recovery in Telegraph Cove, B.C., year after devastating fire

The museum lost nearly all exhibits including a 20-metre fin whale; community donations have raised over $250,000 toward the $1 million rebuilding goal.

  • In the early hours of Dec. 31, 2025, a fire destroyed much of the Whale Interpretive Centre in Telegraph Cove, British Columbia, burning almost all exhibits including a prized 20-metre fin whale.
  • Gordie Graham, resort owner and founder , developed Telegraph Cove, British Columbia, a village of about half a dozen residents that held historic items more than 100 years old.
  • Staff and volunteers packed salvaged remains into a trailer and transported them to Salt Spring Island, where Cetacea Contracting used cutting, blackfly larvae, drying, and an industrial-sized dry-cleaning machine.
