WALK WITH DINOSAURS
See thousands of fossilized dinosaur footprints!
DINOSAURS DISCOVERED HERE!
Here at the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm, you’ll enter a 200 million-year-old ecosystem that was once home to dinosaurs, fishes, plants, and more. Besides the actual fossils, you won’t want to miss the five life-sized models of prehistoric animals and the working fossil preparation lab.

2025 Substation Quarry Excavation
In March 2025, paleontologists and volunteers from St George Dinosaur Discovery Site started excavating bone beds right across the street from the current museum. Thank you to the City of St. George for agreeing to move the substation! As of April 30, we have closed the dig site for the summer so that our team can catalog and start preparing the more than a thousand fossils we unearthed. Learn more about this incredible project on our Excavation page. You can assist us in two ways:
Volunteer
Help catalog and prepare fossils! Preparation of fossils will be done in the lab at the museum and requires several days of training. Please sign up only if you’re able to join us for more than a few days.
