PEMBINA VALLEY CANADIAN FOSSIL DISCOVERY CENTRE Houses the largest collection of marine reptile fossils in Canada. If you like dinosaurs or sea monsters, you will love "Bruce", a 43 ft (13 m) Mosasaur, the fiercest of all the marine reptiles. He's bigger than a T Rex and just as scary. Join the staff on the beautiful Manitoba Escarpment as they hunt for prehistoric fossils. Register for one of the Fossil Dig programs (May to October) to begin your own outdoor fossil finding adventure. These programs have had a 100% success rate in finding fossils since 2008.
