Carter County Museum, Paleontology museum in Ekalaka, Montana, United States.
The Carter County Museum exhibits a collection of dinosaur fossils, including a complete Edmontosaurus skeleton and Triceratops skulls from local excavations.
Established in 1936 in a former automotive garage, this institution became Montana's first county museum and the first to display dinosaur specimens.
The museum presents artifacts and histories of Indigenous peoples, including the Crow, Northern Cheyenne, Mandan, Hidatsa, Lakota, and Assiniboine nations.
