Le Wyoming Dinosaur Center est une société privée située à Thermopolis dans le Wyoming et spécialisée dans l'exposition de fossiles. Elle dispose de son propre site d'extraction et procède elle-même aux excavations de fossiles.

Elle a acquis le spécimen d'archéoptéryx dit de Thermopolis en 2005 d'un donateur privé qui le détenait depuis quelques décennies. La galerie possède en outre 28 squelettes de dinosaures, des fossiles pré-Mésozoïques y compris de nombreux poissons du dévonien.
