Was the giant short-faced bear a hyper-scavenger? A new approach to the dietary study of ursids using dental microwear textures.
Dramatic environmental changes associated with global cooling since the late Miocene, and the onset of glacial-interglacial cycles in the Pleistocene served as a backdrop to the evolutionary radiation of modern bears (family Ursidae). These environmental changes likely prompted changes in food avail...
