National Fossil Day: Fossil Identification
October 16, 2024
Hill Country Trail Region
Celebrate National Fossil Day™ at Texas Science & Natural History Museum! Bring your fossils for in-person identification by a paleontologist (between 10am-noon and 2pm-4pm). If you don’t have a fossil, bring your questions, and get hands-on with real specimens at our touchable fossils table. Check out amazing fossils throughout the museum as well, including a 33-foot cast replica of a full tyrannosaur skeleton and a wide assortment of paleontology specimens, and get a visual overview of over 600 million years of life in the region we now call Texas. Scouts can complete badge requirement 6a of the Earth History option.
