MIOCENE DISCUSSION WITH DR. STEVE 
Museum of York County
Sunday, May 18
2:00 - 3:00 P.M.

Join us for a discussion with Museum of York County curator, Dr. Steve Fields, to learn about the Miocene Epoch, where changes in climate altered the landscape and prompted large-scale adaptation, migration, and extinction of lifeforms.  Rhinos, elephant-like gomphotheres, and giant "pigs" were the residents of the day.  Along with horses, camels and bizarre horned beasts, they had to contend with the world's newest ecosystem - the grassland.  More challenges were yet to come with the Pliocene Epoch, when the earth entered a new phase of climate change that led to the Ice Ages.
