Great place for families to stop and get knowledge about not only the big horned sheep - -but other animals in the area and special places to view and enjoy wildlife.

Enjoyed our visit to the Bighorn Sheep Interpretive Center. We took a private tour up to the mountains to take photographs of the Bighorn Sheep. The sheep were somewhat shy that day but it was a lovely tour with a very knowledgeable representative.

The center is small, but professional and well maintained. The exhibits are modern and include information on ranges and lifestyles and cycles. There is a short, but worthwhile film on the bighorn. There was a display of busts of sheep from around the world that included a couple of middle-eastern species I had never seen before. The staff is very helpful and will provide directions to the nearby sheep winter range. The drive begins about 2 miles east of town and runs for about 8 miles along a dirt road. 4-wheel is not required on the road. There are petroglyphs on the drive in to the range that are quite impressive, the staff at the center can highlight the guide map with their approximate location. This is in the badlands of Wyoming. It has a beauty all its own. The drive down from the Jackson area was beautiful.

Interesting exhibits/displays on bighorn sheep. Kind and helpful staff (because hours had changed after Labor Day we arrived 30 minutes before closing and they offered to let us stay later).

The exhibit was very informative and well worth the time. The exhibits and video were excellent. We enjoyed our time there.

The setting is small, but there is a lot of information packed into a small space.a must see while in or passing through Dubois.

Great learning spot to get to know all there is to know about the Rocky Mt. bighorns and the conservation practices being used to preserve this magnificent symbol of the west. Well done.

I was very surprised at how much I liked this museum. Dubois was the original home of the Sheepeater Indians who lived off the bounty of the Bighorn Sheep. Very nice displays.

We were very interested in seeing bighorn sheep (we didn't see any until we went to Glacier Park in Montana), and since we were staying in Dubois, visited here to learn more about them. The museum is small but very well done! Unfortunately, our #1 memory of this place will be the lady there who was rude to our 16 year old son who brought his frozen coffee inside (he politely took it to the car), then tried to stop my husband from entering the museum because she didn't know he had already paid, and when I bought huckleberry lollipops for my piano students, she looked at my son and said, "SOMEONE'S hungry for lollipops!" which embarrassed him. We weren't told about petroglyphs. We were just glad to get out of there.

We visited on our trip to Wyoming last summer and had visiting this museum. It is a great little place. Very educational and well maintained. The super cool part was the side trip the gals in the gift shop told us about to the petroglyphs located in the area. They gave us a map and directions to the site. The petroglyphs are not well marked on purpose to protect them but after some hiking we found several. It was tons of fun looking for them. Like a treasure hunt!

We stopped while driving through town. The volunteers were extremely nice & helpful. The sheep movie was actually informative. However, the displays are really just head mounts of horned sheep around the world. There are some exhibits to try to make it more interesting. To be fair, I'm not that into sheep--we saw a few on our trip & wanted to learn more. The Center does that well. It's a quick stop.

Rocky and steep in some areas but overall was an excellent place to see! Found incredible rocks and drawings on large rocks-Absolutely breathtaking. Everyone should be so blessed to see such untouched beauty.

There is a good informational movie to see about the lives of bighorn sheep. Nice display. Ask for a brochure to go find petroglyphs about 6 miles out of town.

Had lots of good information on the area attractions! The building was small but had a fun selection of shirts and gifts and info books.

I had to hurry through in 15 minutes and regretted the hurry. Fascinating and very well-done. There's a good 15-m,inute video for introduction and beautiful dioramas. You'll appreciate the Bighorns more after your visit.
