Pronghorn! The Pronghorn is a wonderful link between today's animals and prehistoric animals. It is the fastest animal native to North America --it evolved its speed to escape the American cheetah (yes, we had cheetahs once upon a time). It is the last of its kind; the other eleven species lived in prehistory. Today is our final feature of the migratory animals that will show up in our Kid*Vention Migration Station Feb. 21st. Tomorrow we move on to the prehistoric mammals that will appear for our Earth Day booth on the Downtown Mall! Be prepared for Megafauna!
