Gullickson – Bison

Petroglyph - bison Petroglyph (rock carving) of a bison nursing her calf from Gullickson’s Glenn in Jackson County, Wisconsin.  Results of excavations suggest that Native Americans were occupying the rockshelter as long as 2,000 years ago, although the petroglyphs probably do not date farther back than 800 years ago.
