Fossils
Brule was the site of numerous fossil discoveries dating to 290 mya, in the Early Permian Period. Examples of these finds are now housed at the Creamery Square Heritage Centre in nearby Tatamagouche.
The Brule fossil forest is composed of the ancient tree species: Walchia sp. The forest contains fallen logs, as well as about 90 in-situ-(standing) tree trunks, and leaflets or branch fossils. The 'Brule Forest' is the only example of standing trees, or in-situ tree-trunks of Walchia. Four-footed, tetrapod animal fossil trackways are also found in the fossil rich rocks.
