Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology

It is located 6 km 4 mi northwest from Drumheller, Alberta and 135 km 84 mi upper east from Calgary. The Royal Tyrrell Museum is a Canadian vacation destination and a focal point of palaeontological research known for its gathering of in excess of 130,000 fossils.

The exhibition hall is arranged amidst the fossil-bearing strata of the Late Cretaceous Horseshoe Canyon Formation and holds ious examples from the Alberta barren wilderness, Dinosaur Provincial Park and the Devil's Coulee Dinosaur Egg Site.

The savage dinosaur was later named Albertosaurus sarcophagus. The gallery opened September 25, 1985 and was given "Imperial" status in 1990. The historical center is named out of appreciation for Joseph Burr Tyrrell, a geologist who inadvertently found the principal announced dinosaur fossil in the Red Deer River valley in 1884 while scanning for coal seams.
