PaleoWorld Research Foundation

    June through July we invite all to join a unique dinosaur paleo-adventure in the geological information known as Hell Creek formation in Garfield County located near the town of Jordan Montana. The area is world renowned for discoveries of duck billed dinosaurs Triceratops, and of course, Dr. Barnum Brown's discovery of the first Tyrannosaurus rex.

    The PWRF dinosaur experience allows anyone with a desire to learn paleontology and participate in a "real" 100% hands-on approach to the exploration, discovery, and excavating dinosaur fossils in the badlands of eastern Montana.

    As a PWRF "associate researcher" you are given the opportunity to learn and take part in actual field techniques used to find, collect, and preserve dinosaur fossils. We like to call our program "Edutainment", the act of learning through a medium that both educates and is fun.

    We (PWRF) strongly encourage learning opportunities between parent and child and our program provides an exciting learning environment where parents and children can explore and discover together.
