From the Montana Office of Tourism web page:
The Glendive Dinosaur & Fossil Museum is a 20,000 square foot facility featuring several full size dinosaur and fossil exhibits plus a myriad of singular fossils, making it the largest dinosaur and fossil museum in the United States to present its fossils in the context of biblical creation. Exhibits will continue to be added so stop back and see what has changed.
See the stegosaurus exhibit, it is probably one of the most distinctive, easily recognized and remembered dinosaurs. At 23' long, almost 9' high and 4' wide, it makes an impressive exhibit and complements the Cambodian Stegosaurus carving in "The Man and Dinosaurs" exhibit area. Also check out a Pachycephalosaurus (bone head dinosaur) from the Royal Ontario Museum. Ours was made by a company specializing in museum exhibits. The Pachy is about 8 feet long. It is of interest to the GD&FM because of the unique "design" of the head and also because it is also found in our area of Montana.
