Megafauna Awareness Day 2010

Thursday, June 17th, 2010

I was part of a team that presented this idea to the Natural History Museum—it was originally proposed by Paul S. Martin in the book, Twilight of the Mammoths.

Please join me this Saturday from 10-4 pm at the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles for the Megafauna Day, and at 7 pm for a talk and discussion inside the Page Museum.

Our group (Deena Capparelli, Roman Jaster, Claude Willey and myself) made a Southern California Megafauna Map, which we will be giving away for free this Saturday.
