La Tatacoa Natural History Museum is a local initiative that has grown in recent years thanks to the media that have made visible this space so Colombia and the world can know about the paleontological wealth of the Tatacoa Desert. Local, national and international media have come to the town of La Victoria attracted by the stories of children who dreamed of being paleontologists and today have the largest collection of fossils found in the Tatacoa Desert, a scientific reference for researchers who want to learn about the past of the tropics of South America.
