Cetacea specializes in the creation of world-class skeleton exhibits. 

Cetacea has elevated the science of marine and terrestrial skeleton articulation to artistic process.  Using  the finest quality craftsmanship, Cetacea excels in its field creating exhibits that capture subjects as they would be found in the natural world. Projects are meticulously managed from start to finish so that each skeleton is precisely articulated and entirely unique.  From flying raptor skeletons to the world's largest lunge-feeding blue whale skeleton, Cetacea exhibits have drawn thousands of people, captivating imaginations, enhancing natural curiosities and creating lifelong impressions.
