Brown Bag & Bones!

JOIN paleontologist Jason C. Poole for Brown Bag & Bones! Bring your lunch and curiosity and see what Jason’s uncovering as he preps the fossils unearthed last summer. Fridays, 1:00-2:00 p.m. FREE with admission/membership at the Montana Natural History Center.

In partnership with Elevation Science Institute, MNHC is hosting paleontologist Jason C. Poole at the Center to prepare and conserve dinosaur fossils collected in southern Montana, including the Allosaurus. This dinosaur from the Jurassic period is known for its ferocious lifestyle and its dozens of serrated teeth!

Watch and learn from Jason onsite, as he works thoughtfully and carefully to prepare these 150-million-year-old fossils. Jason has spent 27 years at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia working on new specimens from three continents. A talented paleo-artist, his work has been published in National Geographic and whose art work appears in many museum and private collections.
