This discovery of a new species of Miocene-age peccary, Dyseohyus fricki,[9][10] inspired additional fossil-hunting trips in the western United States with student groups.

As the collection eventually outgrew the shelves in Alf's classroom and the library basement, the museum moved to its own campus building in 1968.

[11] The museum features one of the largest collections of fossil animal footprints in the world,[12] and includes the original peccary skull found in 1937.

The Alf Museum continues to sponsor paleontology field excursions over the summers and has contributed to the discovery of new species like Gryposaurus monumentensis, in the Grand Staircase–Escalante National Monument in southern Utah.

It took three years to completely excavate "Joe" from a ridge deep in the Grand Staircase–Escalante National Monument in Utah, including a helicopter lift out of the region.

In 1937, with the help of a small cement mixer and two hired workers, Thompson began making 60-pound (27 kg) adobe bricks.
