What visitors say

My wife and I stopped off here today when we were in Cheyanne, WY. Wonderful museum. Great displays with just the right amount of information. Definitely worth a look when you are in town!
Informative and timeless place to learn about Western history. If you are not fond of taxidermy, avoid this post and establishment. Lots and lots of animals from all over the world are here to see, and taxidermy is done well on each…
Lots of taxidermy. I had a good time looking at all the exhibits. Definitely recommended!
