Summary
| Description |
English: The 2016 artwork features three iconic Pleistocene ("ice age") animals from the United States—saber-toothed cat, long-horned bison, and a condor flying above. The landscape is an idealized representation of southern Nevada within what is now Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument.
Starting in February 2016, the National Fossil Day website will feature a different Pleistocene Partner each month. These partners preserve fossils and their stories from the Pleistocene Epoch, the slice of geologic time spanning from 2.58 million (2,580,000) to 11,700 years ago. Scroll down to learn more about the featured animals, the Pleistocene, and places to see Pleistocene fossils. Check the National Fossil Day website each month for a new feature article! This year marks the second appearance of Pleistocene fossils on National Fossil Day artwork. A mammoth appeared on the 2012 artwork. |
