All creatures respond to their environment and ecosystems for survival success.
Throughout time the place we call Utah has been vastly different in geology, climate, and ecosystems. This variety has required many adaptations from the creatures that have lived here. From trilobites to mammoths to Desert Gatherers to us, interaction with our surroundings has shaped our survival and the place we know as home. Newly discovered evidence indicates that mammoths were still living as recently as 3,500 years ago in the Siberian arctic. Ask if anyone has been to see the woolly mammoth site in Emery County.
