This program will highlight the ice age and explore the life of cavemen and the unusual animals that inhabited the planet.

Field Paleontologist Mike and Roberta Straka will present the “MASTODONS, CAVEMEN AND BEARS-OH MY” show. This program will highlight the ice age and explore the life of cavemen and the unusual animals that inhabited the planet. We will feature two amazing skulls – a SABRE-TOOTH TIGER and a CAVE BEAR, that our team excavated. Your patrons will see actual fossils and early tools of humans. Finally, we’ll host the “Are You Smarter Than a Caveman” game show.

In addition, each child will have the opportunity to dig up a real Mastodon bone and help us build a Mastodon! This program is appropriate for grades K-8. Please register!
