Get up close to some of the most spectacular Ice Age fossils from our Geology collection during this special National Fossil Day program, previously livestreamed from the Academy on October 17. 

Paleontology curator Peter Roopnarine and members of the Geology department present jaw-dropping Pleistocene megafauna fossils from the Bay Area, including a mammoth tusk, dire wolf skull, and a fully-articulated fossil of a saber-toothed cat—the California state fossil.
