Description Hemicyon sansaniensis portrait.
It was an early member of Ursidae family (bears and relatives), but it looked much more like living dogs. It lived in Europe during the Miocene (aprox. 14 million years ago)
This portrait is highly speculative at this moment, because I still know very little things about its anatomy, and I need the revision of specialist before giving this version the final "Ok", but now, it's the better I have, so here it is... ^^

Me gusta mucho como has marcado la diferencia entre Amphycion y Hemicyon le da mucha más credibilidad a tus reconstrucciones, felicidades!!

Gracias! Como es un úrsido, le he intentado dar una expresión "de oso" en la forma de los labios. Aunque cuando hice esta reconstrucción, sabía muy poco sobre Hemicyon. Espero poder hacer un Hemicyon mejor en un futuro próximo.

Really good GW! The fur looks like Sibbick's mammals!
Another for my favorites!

I don't know its anatomy either, but I think your rendition looks great. I love the fur detail. The muzzle does look very bear-like.
