University of Cincinnati researchers studied the teeth of prehistoric horses and bison in the Arctic to learn more about their diets compared to modern species.
What they found suggests the Arctic 40,000 years ago maintained a broader diversity of plants that, in turn, supported both more and more diverse big animals.
The Arctic today is spartan compared to the wildlife-rich landscape during the ice ages of the Pleistocene epoch between 12,000 and 2.6 million years ago when wild horses, mammoths, bison and other big animals roamed the steppes and grasslands of what is now northern Canada, northern Europe, Alaska and Siberia. Short-faced bears, ground sloths and even cave lions called the 49th State home. ....

For about 20 years, specimen PP-00128 in the earth sciences collection of the University of Alaska Museum was thought to belong to a rather old bear. The femur fragment, small enough to hold between two fingers, had been excavated from a site along the southeastern Alaskan coast where archaeologists also uncovered the remains of fish, birds, mammals, and humans going back thousands of years. ....

Tasmanian Tigers and Wolves Evolved Uncannily Similar Skulls


Tasmanian Tigers and Wolves Evolved Uncannily Similar Skulls

The extinct thylacine had the stripes of a tiger, the body of a canid, and the pouch of a kangaroo. These ill-fated, predatory marsupials are a classic example of convergent evolution, in which species independently evolve the same traits, and a new study breaks down just how remarkably similar Tasmanian tigers’ skulls were to those of wolves.

Along with the rest of Marsupialia, the thylacine popularly known as the Tasmanian tiger split off from the gray wolf (and the rest of placental mammals) about 160 million years ago. In the long evolutionary trajectory that followed, despite living in different environments, the two animals wound up with very similar developmental adaptations to their skulls, according to a paper published in the journal Communications Biology. ....
