21 Νοε 2018 · The abundance of skeletal remains of cave bears in Pleistocene deposits can offer crucial information on the biology and life history of this megafaunal element. The histological study of 62 femora from 23 different European localities and comparisons with specimens of five extant ursid species revealed novel data on tissue types and growth ...
In this article, we briefly review the origins, mode of life and geographical distribution of the cave bear, and discuss current evidence of cave bear extinction in the light of a chronology based on direct radiocarbon dating of cave bear remains.
15 Αυγ 2019 · Ancient DNA analysis. The cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) is one of the Late Pleistocene megafauna species that faced extinction at the end of the last ice age.
In this article, we briefly review the origins, mode of life and geographical distribution of the cave bear, and discuss current evidence of cave bear extinction in the light of a chronology based on direct radiocarbon dating of cave bear remains.
The cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) is a prehistoric species of bear that lived in Europe and Asia during the Pleistocene and became extinct about 24,000 years ago during the Last Glacial Maximum. Both the word cave and the scientific name spelaeus are used because fossils of this species were mostly found in caves.
Abstract.-Cave bears, an extinct subgenus (Spelearctos) of Ursus, were versatile enough to inhabit large areas of the northern hemisphere during the middle and late Pleistocene, yet they had evolved a spe- cialized dentition that emphasized grinding functions, implying a heavy dietary reliance on tough, fi- brous foods (i.e., plants).
