Valley City – Oliver the Triceratops by Alan Komrosky and Hell Creek Relics, will be leaving the Barnes County Museum by the end of October.  This temporary display is a first-of-its-kind exhibit showing the still-in-field-jackets “Oliver” in comparison to the Triebold Paleontology casting of “Gundy” the triceratops, owned by the North Dakota Geological Survey.  Oliver is a 65% complete male, 100% real fossil, specimen found in SW South Dakota’s Hell Creek Formation.  Gundy will remain at the museum.  

Oliver hasn’t been with us long, but it’s been an amazing exhibit and we’re grateful to Alan Komrosky and Hell Creek Relics for making it possible! 

The Barnes County Museum is open Monday-Saturday 10 am -4 pm with free will admission.
