DESCRIPTION:The 2020 William Boyd Dawkins Lecture \nOur beastly past: ver
 tebrate responses to abrupt \nclimate change during the last 60\,000 yea
 rs in Britain.\n\nMove\, adapt or die? The extreme impacts of Ice Age cl
 imate change caused the major reorganisation of animal communities in no
 rthern Europe through species origination\, evolution\, extinction and m
 ovement\, with Britain the home of hippos and elephants\, arctic fox and
  reindeer at different times.  For over a decade\, Professor Danielle Sc
 hreve from Royal Holloway University of London has been excavating new c
 ave sites that are yielding fascinating insights into animal responses t
 o very abrupt climate change during the last Ice Age. Her lecture will t
 ell the story of changing landscapes\, fauna and early humans in the fac
 e of climate change and conclude how this information can be used to sup
 port modern conservation initiatives. \n\nProf. Danielle Schreve is a wo
 rld expert on the fossil mammal record from the last 2.6 million years\,
  based at the Centre for Quaternary Research in the Department of Geogra
 phy at Royal Holloway\, University of London. \n\nThurs 6th February 202
