Understanding Ancient Moose Populations in the Southern Rocky Mountains
ABSTRACT Moose (Alces alces) are an iconic symbol of contemporary Rocky Mountain ecosystems, and their growing abundance in Colorado and other portions of the Southern Rockies has inspired debate around their regional prehistory prior to their 20th century translocation. The Early Holocene biogeography of moose in North America is poorly characterised,

Raspodjela metala u bedrenoj kosti smeđeg medvjeda (Ursus arctos Linnaeus, 1758)
This study investigated the levels of lead, strontium, calcium and zinc in the femoral bone of 41 brown bears (Ursus arctos Linnaeus, 1758) from the area of Lika and Gorski kotar, collected during 2014 and 2015. Metal levels were measured by the inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry technique.

In several primates and carnivores, pronation/supination angles of the forearm skeleton were examined, and it is thought that a larger angle is useful to acquire dexterous behaviors in feeding and/or life style, including climbing. In this study, the pronation/supination angles in Asiatic black, brown and polar bears were nondestructively examined ...

Analiza aktivnosti mrkog medvjeda (Ursus arctos Linnaeus, 1758) u prirodi i zatočeništvu
Hrvatska je dom mrkom medvjedu, najvećem europskom grabežljivcu. Naša netaknuta priroda omogućila je opstanak medvjeda u šumovitim planinskim područjima na Dinarskom gorju. Nepreglednost takvog tipa staništa otežava direktno promatranje ponašanja i aktivnosti medvjeda.
