Description
Ursus rossicus, or U. savini rossicus, resting in a field of meadow-grass. This was a small cave bear, about the size of a modern black bear that would've inhabited the mountains and the steppes from the Urals to the Altai in the late Pleistocene (thanks for the info, who still has a great cave bear chart almost four years later).Yes I depicted it because it had "Ross" in the name. I was also excited to see it was discovered by Vereshchagin, only to realize it was zoologist Nikolai Vereshchagin, and not war painter who I did a presentation on, Vasily Vereshchagin.

Definitely! Your chart was as eye-opening for me as I'm sure it was for many others, in that it showed there were a lot more "cave bears" than Ursus spelaeus spelaeus. I still find it fascinating to this day.
