    Family Past Times visitors can discover how animals have been important to people who have lived in California with an exploration of Animal Signs. Ohlone stories often include the animals which live in the area. The Spanish came to the area in 1769 and introduced horses and sheep. When the Mexicans established rancheros in the county they used the horses to herd cattle. As different immigrant groups came to this area, after the Gold Rush, they brought different traditions with them. Kids can learn how animals have been used as symbols as they design their own  great seal of the State of California.
