Description

This museum shares the same location as the La Brea Tar Pits, so after you've witnessed the Pits which once entrapped Ice Age mammals, you can step inside and view the fossil remains. There are massive displays of mammoths, saber-toothed cats and an incredible collection of dire wolves. There are also exhibits of insects, plants and birds. Especially fascinating is the display of the skeletal remains of the La Brea Woman who is said to have lived about 9,000 years ago. This is an extraordinary experience for the entire family.

Admission is $6 for adults, $3.50 for students and seniors, and children under 5 free; free admission the first Tuesday of every month.
