KEEPING FOSSILS IN WYOMING

For more than 150 years dinosaurs and other fossils have been excavated from ranches across Eastern Wyoming.  Few have remained here. None have stayed in Niobrara County. We aim to change that by placing dinosaurs on display for the benefit of our local communities and the economic benefit of visitors passing through and stopping to learn about local cultural and natural history. 

SCIENCE FOR ALL LEARNERS

The Eastern Wyoming Nature Center aims to bring science resources to learners throughout the region. Through exhibits showcasing local natural history, we will bring nature and science to your fingertips. Join us and be part of a community shaping the future of education and discovery.
