Dinosaur Provincial Park preserves an extraordinarily diverse group of freshwater vertebrates.
Fish include sharks, rays (such as the durophage Myledaphus), paddlefish, bowfins, gars, and teleosts.
Amphibians include frogs, salamanders, and the extinct albanerpetontids.
Reptiles include lizards (such as the large monitor Palaeosaniwa), a wide range of turtles, crocodilians, and the fish-eating Champsosaurus.
Mammal fossils from the park are relatively rare and consist of isolated teeth, fragmentary jaws with teeth, and tooth fragments from mouse-sized and shrew-sized animals.
They include representatives of placental, marsupial, and multituberculate mammals.

Plant fossils from the park and surrounding area include fern fronds; foliage and wood of taxodiaceous and cupressaceous conifers; and leaves of Ginkgo, Cercidiphyllum, Platanus, a Pistia-like aquatic plant, and others.
A rich assemblage of fossil pollen and spores has also been described.

The dinosaurs of the park are astonishingly diverse.

Ceratopsia
Leptoceratops sp.

Centrosaurus apertus
Coronosaurus brinkmani
Styracosaurus albertensis
Pachyrhinosaurus
Chasmosaurus belli, C. russelli
