Abbreviations: Basipod = basipodials; Acrop = acropodials; Pat/Sesam = patella/sesamoids. Superscripts refer to the type of access to carcasses by bears: S = Scavenging (OBs 1, 6 and 7 correspond to ungulate natural deaths and; OBs 4, 15 and 16 to Roadkills); P = Predation (OBs 8–14 and 17); UNK = Unknown (OBs 2, 3 and 5) (see Table 1 for more details).
