The only taxidermied blue whale in the world, 1865 CE, now housed at the Natural History Museum in Sweden. The public was allowed to enter it up until a couple was found having sex inside it; now its jaws are opened only for special occasions like Swedish election days [995×560]

Great. Now it smells like fish inside it.
That’s why we can’t have nice things
I went to see it in Göteborg.
It’s actually a juvenile, not nearl fully grown.
They have the jaw bones of an adult blue whale next to it, to give you a sense of how huge they can get.
(They also have some really goofy taxidermies in that museum…)
true artifact porn
Something something sperm whale.
So you’re telling me you can have sex inside the whale on election days
Way to ruin it for everyone random couple
So election and erection days?
Uh… What do they do on election days, that they open the whales mouth *for*?
DUDE. You’re seeing a giant fucking TAXIDERMIED WHALE and all they could think Abt. Was fuckin’ in it?? 😭 I’d tell that man to get tf off, bc he got me ALL THE WAY FUCKED UP with that one. I’m tryna look at all the cool shit damnit; like.. y’all see each other everyday!!
As a Swede, I can confirm. Whale and election is the same word in Swedish and the last of April is a Swedish holiday when it also is open. Not many countries that you can vote from inside of whale
Thar she blows.
