Big Bone Lick State ParkBig Bone Lick State Park is located in Boone County, Kentucky. The name comes from the Pleistocene megafauna fossils found at the park. The mammoths and other creatures are believed to have been drawn to this location by a salt lick. It bills itself as "the birthplace of American paleontology". A new visitor's center was opened on 18 Nov 2004 (despite actually being open for use from Labour Day). The center features American art and a 1,000 pound mastodon skull. External link
