A placental order containing cats, dogs, bears and their relatives. The taxon name does not imply that every member has a predominantly meat-based diet.
A member of Ursidae. Archaeological occurrence of a transported captive bear is not proof of a local wild population.
Martes martes, a mustelid predator whose recovery can change interactions within mammalian assemblages.
A North American mustelid whose introduced populations in Europe derive from human transport and escapes or releases.
A canid of the Canis lupus lineage. Exact regional last-occurrence claims require distinguishing verified records from later stories.
A domesticated canid. Self-related odour discrimination and visual mirror-guided body localization are different experimental capacities.
Ursus arctos. Later archaeological specimens can represent transported captive animals rather than a surviving local wild population.
