Visit the Mammoth Site in Waco, TX
Although the first bones were discovered in 1978, the Waco Mammoth Site remained closed to the public until the
end of 2009. Baylor University staff, students and volunteers have spent countless
hours excavating the site over the past 30 years. In 2006, plans were initiated
to make the site a public park, and with the support of the Waco Mammoth Foundation,
this goal became a reality. The Waco Mammoth Site now includes a breathtaking dig
shelter that creates an atmosphere of an art gallery. The site also features a scenic
trail way complete with benches and rest areas where visitors can reflect on what
life was like during the age of the mammoths.
