The Bighorn Basin GeoScience Center is dedicated to the study of the Basin’s natural resources and to the promotion of geoscience and local historical and educational activities. We offer exhibits and educational materials for educators, geoscientists, tourists and the people of Wyoming. The Big Horn Basin Geoscience Center recently opened the Museum of Ancient Life in downtown Greybull to house and display some of our fossils and reproductions in the context of the environment that was prevalent in the time frame the animals existed. The museum features a 40 foot mural depicting the landscape, flora, and fauna of the Bighorn Basin of Wyoming as we understand it was about 150 million years ago. Stop by to enjoy our displays and learn more about the geological and paleontological history of our area.

This is a bigger and better collection of fossils which you may be walking on if you visit the back roads. There are several dinosaur skulls from a nearby quarry and many fossils from the foothills and mountains. You will learn about the inland sea which you may visit. It is hard to believe there are ripples frozen in time along with coastal fossils and dinosaur tracks. The tracks are rare. They are from the middle Jurassic Period. Plate Tectonics played a part in the history of these track because you may see more if you visit the Island of Skye at low tide.
