Over the summer we have been
rearranging our natural history display to give both a more comprehensive
overview of the regions natural history as well as giving more information
about the artifacts. We rearranged our geology display, giving it better
lighting and more identification, with an emphasis on the oil industry. Our
osteology (bone) display now not only speaks to the bison and other ice age
animals, but also several different animals that come from the north Peace
Region with an emphasis on comparative craniology and dentition.
We also identified more from our palaeontology display, which emphasizes
ancient sea life in Alberta. Finally, we
improved our archaeology display, giving visitors the chance to see almost
every angle of our stone tools.

The display features everything from
dinosaur bones, to a meteorite, to a partial bison spine, to arrowheads, and
even the tooth of a woolly mammoth. We
invite you down to the museum to get up close and personal with our artifacts
and to learn from our new display.
