As a popular Idaho attraction, the Shoshone Bird Museum Of Natural History was founded to educate the public about the natural world around them.
This includes a wide range of ancient, naturally preserved fossils that showcase specimens from different time-periods around the world. Our displays feature the tiniest of plants to some of the largest creatures that ever roamed the earth, soared the skies, and swam the seas.
Through the careful collection of our founder, Richard Arthur Olsen, Earth’s ancient history is revealed to create a sense of wonder and an understanding of a land before time.
