The European Brown bears from the middle Pleistocene were massive, almost the size of the modern coastal Brown bears. Some of them can actually be mistaken as the Cave bears.

The Pleistocene is a geological epoch. The Pleistocene lasted from about 2,588,000 years ago to about 11,700 years ago. The Pleistocene spanned the world's recent period of repeated glaciations, better known as ice ages. When the Pleistocene ended approximately 11,700 years ago, the Holocene epoch (the current geological epoch) began.
This comprehensive overview considers the currently known Pleistocene palaeoart of Asia on a common basis, which suggests that the available data are entirely inadequate to form any cohesive synthesis about this corpus. In comparison to the attention lavished on the corresponding record available from Eurasia’s small western appendage, Europe, it is evident that Pleistocene palaeoart from the rest of the world has been severely neglected. Southern Asia, in particular, holds great promise for the study of early cognitive development of hominins, and yet this potential has remained almost entirely unexplored. Asia is suggested to be the key continent in any global synthesis of ‘art’ origins, emphasising the need for a comprehensive pan-continental research program. This is not just to counter-balance the incredible imbalance in favour of Europe, but to examine the topic of Middle Pleistocene palaeoart development effectively.
If you want to see a woolly rhinoceros, it is enough to go to… museums :). A short story of the Pleistocene woolly rhino.

Hurricane Mathew had grazed the Florida Peninsula the previous week so we were optimistic that the ...

When facing the challenge of creating a reconstruction of such a fantastic fauna as the ones found in the late Pleistocene of Argentina, the real difficulties are to decide what to leave out and, even more, how to arrange what you cannot leave out. As it has happened so often in this kind of projects,…
