Living History Day - April 21st 12-3 p.m.

The Clarke Museum periodically hosts "Living History Days", where aspects of Humboldt's past are brought to life with fun and educational presentations, activities, and reenactments.
For this Living History Day, Phil Johnston will give a presentation at 1 p.m.: Wildlife Tracking: Reading Nature's Language and Finding Animals

This talk will discuss both the historical and modern applications of wildlife tracking, from early hominid evolution to contemporary wildlife conservation and research. Examples from around the world will be discussed, with a special emphasis on the Klamath Region where Phil studies Mountain Lions and Fishers.

Phil Johnston is a Mountain Lion & Fisher Biologist with Hoopa Tribal Forestry, and he is certified as a Track and Sign Specialist.
Mike Peterson, an archaeologist with Redwood National Park in Orick, will do interactive flint-knapping demonstrations:
Bill Kohse will do historical reenactment,
