BBHC offers field trip for Fern-filled Fauna of the Bighorn Basin


Fossilized vegetation of the Bighorn Basin

From the Buffalo Bill Historical Center:
Dr. Scott Wing describes his job like this, “As a research scientist and curator at the Smithsonian’s Museum of Natural History the three major parts of my job are research, collections, and outreach.”

All three come together on July 9, 2011, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. with a plant fossil field trip to the Big Cedar Ridge in the southeastern BighornBasin. The BuffaloBillHistoricalCenter co-sponsors the outing—dubbed Fern-filled Fauna of the BighornBasin—with the Wyoming Native Plant Society, WashakieMuseum, and the University of Wyoming Berry Biodiversity Conservation Center. There is no charge for the trip; however, pre-registration is required by contacting Emily Buckles at emilyb@bbhc.org or 307.578.4110.
