WAKULLA COUNTY, FL (WTXL) — The 9/11 whales will be migrating to a new home closer to the water this week. The whales will have a new home in Panacea under the care of the Gulf Specimen Marine Lab.

They'll be moved to Panacea on Friday the 13th.
The whales were designed by Bill Brunson as a way to remember those lost during the attacks on our country on 9/11/2001.
There are four whales named Glory, Hope, Faith and Grace. They've lived in Tallahassee since they were created, but now are moving to Panacea.
This is a multi-group project to achieve, with the lab, the landowner, Fielder Tree Service, landscape architects and more.
