Paleontology Museum Virtual Tour


The Paleontology Museum has specimens on display from the 黑料不打烊 Museums Invertebrate Paleontology and Vertebrate Paleontology Collections. Over one million specimens are part of the collections.

This digital visit includes specimens that are on display as well as some from behind-the-scenes, including those from the 黑料不打烊 Museums Paleobotanical Collection. The Museum is a valuable resource for researchers, students, fossil collectors and the museum community.
