Ref.#78 0176 ~ Sheep Rock, John Day River
The John Day Fossil Beds National Monument is comprised of three widely separated areas, one of which is the Sheep Rock Unit. The monument was established to preserve the heart of the fossil rich area and some geologic rarities. Preserved in the various beds are fossils of animals such as horses, camels, rhinoceroses, bears, pronghorn, deer, weasels, raccoons, cats, dogs, and sloths. These fauna thrived in the monument's open woodland and savannah between 15 and 12 million years ago. The fossils of oak, sycamore, maple, ginkgo, and elm trees reflect the area's cool climate during this time period.
