(a) Bivariate plot of the skull zygomatic width (in mm) and maximal length (in mm) of three of the ancient Yakutian bears from this study (green dots), and modern brown bears (Ursus arctos L.) from Siberia and the Russian Far East (triangles). Modern brown bears measurements are represented as mean ± SD (see Supplementary Table 1 for full details). (b) Plot representing the claw length along the outer curvature (in mm) of the ancient Yakutian bear (DGI-4) (green dot) and modern bears from Eurasia and North America (triangles). Lines represent an interval connecting minimal and maximal length values (see Supplementary Table 2).
