Giant Puzzle - Beluga Code

Head to the Gulf of St. Lawrence lookout at the Biodôme de Montréal for an interactive family activity: solving a giant beluga-shaped puzzle. Measuring 1.5 meters, this puzzle is as big as a newborn beluga! It`s sure to amaze both kids and adults.

A Family Activity About Beluga Protection

Join our educational team for this game where each puzzle piece represents a species within a complex food web. Put together zooplankton, shrimp, eel, smelt, and cod, and discover how the beluga's survival depends on the delicate balance of the St. Lawrence Estuary.

As you explore the beluga's prey, you'll also learn about the threats facing its habitat: pollution, microplastics, and more. In just five minutes, this giant puzzle allows children aged two and up - as well as adults - to touch, observe, and learn.

You'll leave the Biodôme with a deeper understanding of how our actions help preserve marine biodiversity and protect the beluga, an iconic species of Quebec.
