Dinosaur Finds!
Lower Level Gallery

This exhibit highlights Wendy Sloboda’s life as a dinosaur hunter and a local paleontology heroine! In 1987, she discovered the first Canadian dinosaur eggs in southern Alberta. Ten years later, she located a fossilized dinosaur dropping containing the remains of bone from aT rex meal. And in the Gobi Desert in Mongolia, Wendy found what may be a new type of legless lizard. She even has a new species of dinosaur named after her because she was the first to find its footprint!
