The T.rex Discovery Centre in Eastend, Saskatchewan, opened in 2001 to preserve and interpret the fossil record of southwest Saskatchewan, following local efforts begun in 1988. Located in the Frenchman River Valley, it presents prehistoric life from the Cretaceous and Cenozoic periods through fossils from formations such as Bearpaw, Frenchman, and Ravenscrag, and includes an active Fossil Research Station. Its most famous connection is Scotty, a Tyrannosaurus rex discovered nearby in 1991 and later found to be about 65 percent complete. With Scotty’s cast on display since 2013, the centre has gained an international profile as both a regional museum and research hub.
