High Elevation Occurrences of Jaguars (Panthera onca, Linnaeus 1758) (Mammalia, Felidae) in Northwestern Mexico, With a Record of Collaborative Interactions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Jaguars in the northern end of their distribution have recently become the center of conservation efforts; however, the State of Chihuahua has been underrepresented in monitoring projects. We present five new records of jaguars in high altitudes as well as the first evidence of two jaguars exhibiting cooperative behavior in Mexico.

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

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 ...

The Brain Anatomy of the Brown Bear (Carnivora, Ursus arctos L., 1758) Compared to That of Other Carnivorans: A Cross-Sectional Study Using MRI

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2019
In this study, we aimed to provide a neuroanatomy atlas derived from cross-sectional and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the encephalon of the brown bear (Ursus arctos). A postmortem brain analysis using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI – 1,5T; a high-

Sapsucker Wells as a Keystone Nutritional Resource: Evaluating Methods for Detection of Secondary Sap Consumers

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
We used direct observations, camera traps, and environmental DNA (eDNA) to identify secondary consumers of sap from wells created by red‐naped (S. nuchalis) and Williamson's (S. thyroideus) sapsuckers among three groups of shrubs and trees in south‐central Colorado, USA.

Enamel Structure of Arctoid Carnivora: Amphicyonidae, Ursidae, Procyonidae, and Mustelidae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mammalogy, 2001
Enamel of several fossil and recent arctoid carnivores was studied with light and scanning electron microscopy. As in other carnivorans, 3 types of Hunter-Schreger bands (HSB) were observed: undulating, acute-angled, and zigzag HSB, which differ in their 3-dimensional complexity.

大熊猫分类地位的探讨

open access: yes野生动物学报, 1987
研究大熊猫的免疫分类学性状,并讨论大熊猫在解剖学、遗传学和分子生物学方面的特征,认为大熊猫与熊类亲缘关系密切是无可辩驳的。主张大熊猫更为适宜的分类地位是并入熊科(Ursidae),再立大熊猫亚科(A11uropodinae)。问题的提出关于大熊猫和小熊猫在分类学上的地位,一百多年来一直是生物学上一个难解之谜。虽然有不少学者,尤其是我国的学者把大熊猫划为独立的一科,把小熊猫划入浣熊科 (Procyonidae),但是纵观发表的50篇论文表明,把大熊猫分为熊科(Ursidae)、浣熊科和自成大熊猫科 ...

Ecotone Might Provide Key Refugium for Sky Island Mammals in the Southern Appalachian Mountains

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Sky islands are among the most biodiverse ecosystems in the world but face a disproportionately high threat from climate change. We examined the spruce‐fir–northern hardwood ecotone as a possible refugium for mammals in the Southern Appalachian red spruce (Picea rubens)–Fraser fir (Abies fraseri) sky islands.

Occurrence and structure of epipharyngeal pouches in bears (Ursidae)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, 2001
The infrequent mention of epipharyngeal pouches occurring in some species of bears indicates the scarcity of morphological and functional knowledge about these structures. In order to provide precise morphological data on the structure of these remarkable formations and to verify their taxonomic utility, the pharyngeal regions of 1 spectacled bear and ...
