Ursidae Fischer 1817

open access: yes, 2018
Family URSIDAE Fischer, 1817 The Family Ursidae contains two species of the Genus Ursus in Korea. While Ursus thibetanus occurs throughout Korea, a northern species, U. arctos, has limited occupancy in areas north of Mt. Geumgang, despite a Pleistocene

Expanding the Ecological Application of Invertebrate‐Derived DNA (iDNA) for Monitoring Terrestrial Mammals Using a Single‐Species Approach

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA
Successful conservation management planning is dependent on effective monitoring. The challenges of monitoring rare or elusive species are compounded by limited human and financial resources.

Exploring dietary adaptations in Ursus minimus: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis of the mandible

open access: yesBoreas
The extinct bear Ursus minimus, which lived in Europe during the Pliocene and possibly Early Pleistocene, is considered the common ancestor of all modern Ursini. U. minimus is thought to have been omnivorous, with a preference for invertebrates.

No need to replace an “anomalous” primate (Primates) with an “anomalous” bear (Carnivora, Ursidae) [PDF]

open access: yesZooKeys, 2015
By means of mitochondrial 12S rRNA sequencing of putative “yeti”, “bigfoot”, and other “anomalous primate” hair samples, a recent study concluded that two samples, presented as from the Himalayas, do not belong to an “anomalous primate”, but to an ...

Combined analysis of fourteen nuclear genes refines the Ursidae phylogeny

open access: yesMolecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2007
peer reviewedDespite numerous studies, questions remain about the evolutionary history of Ursidae and additional independent genetic markers were needed to elucidate these ambiguities.

The relationship between form and function of the carnivore mandible. [PDF]

open access: yesAnat Rec (Hoboken)
Abstract Dietary morphology diversified extensively in Carnivoraformes (living Carnivora and their stem relatives) during the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years) as they evolved to capture, handle, and process new animal and plant diets. We used 3D geometric morphometrics, mechanical advantage, and finite element analysis to test the evolutionary ...

Bite-DNA Shows Substantial Browsing on Willows (<i>Salix</i> spp.) by North American Bison in Yellowstone National Park. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Riparian willows in Yellowstone National Park are shaped by ungulate browsing, but species‐specific contributions remain unclear. Using bite‐DNA metabarcoding of browsed willow twigs across six northern range sites, we found that American bison were the most frequent browsers, exceeding elk and often mule deer.
