Starting with 35 sites, National Parks now oversees over 400 sites in the U.S. and its territories. In honor of today, Howard printed a cut of an animal that has become an iconic symbol of both National Parks and our friends at California State Parks. #OnThisDay #nationalpark #sacramento | Sacramento History Museum | Facebook
