The earliest people in California were hunter-gatherers who lived in small groups. The first people to live in Redwood National and State Parks were the Yurok, Tolowa, and Karok native peoples. These groups lived in small villages along streams, lakes, and other bodies of water. They fished for salmon, eulachon, and other fish. They also hunted deer, elk, bear, otter and other animals that inhabited the area.
