Image: a cave bear skeleton, upright. Reconstruction in the Speleologic Museum Laichingen , Germany. The Cave Bear lived in Europe during the Pleistocene . The scientific name Ursus spelaeus derives from the fact that he lived in caves. Cave bears used caves for many purposes: they lived there in winter, gave birth to the young and died in caves. Brown bears on the other side use caves only for hibernation. In many caves all over Europe huge ramains of cave bears have been found. The bones in caves are normally from cave bears. In several caves skeletons of bears are displayed.

Predatory tools are biological weapons used by carnivores to hunt and capture prey. The most common examples are claws, talons, and canine teeth. The uses of predatory tools are as unique as the species possessing them.

It may have attacked bison, deer, and horses. The largest known skull of arctodus was found by a Yukon gold miner. Another fossil from southern Saskatchewan indicates that arctodus lived there more than 70,000 years ago. This species ranged the high grasslands of western North America from Alaska to Mexico, while a lighter-built species ( Arctodus pristinus ) with smaller teeth inhabited the more heavily wooded Atlantic coastal region. The short-faced bear became extinct some 10,000 years ago, perhaps partly because some of its large prey died out earlier, and partly because of competition with the smaller, more herbivorous br Read More Go to Site SmokeyBear.com - ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT WILDFIRES.

They were unusually tall and highly carnivorous. They ranged from Alaska and the Yukon to Mexico, and from Pacific to Atlantic coasts. Of the two North American short-faced bears, the giant short-faced bear ( Arctodus simus ) was the largest (Figure 1) the biggest known skull being from the Yukon. This bear is distinguished from the lesser short-faced bear ( Arctodus pristinus ) by larger size; bigger, broader, more crowded teeth; a shorter face and relatively longer legs. The largest animals were nearly 1.5 m high wh Read More Go to Site Zoobooks - The Encyclopedia of Animals Votes:0 Animals A - Z - Bears Bears People have always respected bears. The most recognizable group of stars in the northern sky is the "big dipper"—officially known as Ursa Major, or "the great bear." Stone-age hunters worshipped and hunted bears at the same time. Native Americans who had the courage to face a bear alone were honored above all others. Hundreds of years ago, before lions were known in Europe, the bear was called "the king of beasts." In modern times, there are few children who grow up without ever having access to a teddy bear. Bears strike us with respectful fascination. How they hunt. Some large bears have claws almost five inches long. These are primarily used for digging up roots and catching fish.
