details
One of a small number of geology and paleontology museums in Wyoming, the Tate houses a collection of over 3,000 fossil and mineral specimens – including dinosaurs and Dee the Mammoth, an 11,600 year old Columbian Mammoth who lived in the American West during the Pleistocene, or Ice Age. Museum staff are always on hand to answer questions and help identify items folks might bring in. You’ll even find a life-sized bronze of a juvenile T. rex right outside the museum. Make your visit not only enjoyable, but educational as well!
