You're out in the wilderness climbing a rocky, snow covered hill. As you near the top, you hear the heavy breathing of a massive beast. You look up to behold one of the animal kings of Ice Age North America, the short faced bear. The massive brown furred creature stands upon the highest part of the rise and looks out over your head. He sniffs the air. He hasn't seen you yet, but he senses you. Better figure out how to sneak away.


The short-faced bear, or Arctodus Simus, is an genus of bear that inhabited North America during the Pleistocene and went extinct about 10,000 years ago. It may have been the largest predatory land mammal of its day. Experts disagree on the exact nature of it's diet, but there is speculation that it would steal other predator's kills by using its intimidating size to run them off.


Thanks for looking!
