Just days ago, I wrote an article about how the world’s oldest DNA was recovered from mammoths that lived more than a million years ago. The DNA was collected from three ancient mammoths that were preserved in the Siberian permafrost.
And now, new research has revealed that the oldest DNA from an animal not preserved in permafrost has been extracted from an ancient cave bear. The DNA was extracted from a large and vegetarian 360,000-year-old cave bear that lived in what is now Georgia during the Middle Pleistocene Period.
The cave bears’ scientific name is
Ursus kudarensis praekudarensis and they were known to hibernate in caves during the winter months. They weighed as much as a tonne (over double the size of a male polar bear) despite only eating plants and since they had a hard time storing fat away for their hibernation periods, they occasionally died during the winter months.
ESSAY
The Steading was a house in which Tim Stead pioneered the use of locally sourced hardwoods rather than imported timber IT was in November 2020 that Nichola Fletcher decided it was all over. After five years of trying to raise money to save for the nation the remarkable home of craftsman and sculptor Tim Stead, the last funding application had been rejected. She and her colleagues on the Tim Stead Trust had reached the end of the line. Stead, who died in 2000 aged just 48, occupies a unique place in Scotland’s cultural landscape. Even those who are familiar with his most famous works – the North Sea Oil Industries Memorial Chapel in Aberdeen’s St Nicholas Kirk, the National Museum of Scotland’s Millennium Clock and the interior of Glasgow’s Cafe Gandolfi – may not know his masterpiece was actually the home he made for his family in the Borders village of Blainslie.
