Abstract
Forty-two kinds of mammals and six kinds of reptiles were identified. The extinct and extralimital fauna is believed to date from a time when climatic conditions resembled those of southeastern Wyoming and adjacent Colorado; vegetation probably consisted of sagebrush grasrassland with few or no trees present. The evidence suggests degeneration of these conditions directly to those of historic times without an intervening arid, warm Altithermal period.--H.C.W.S
