Cave bear(Ursus spelaeus)

Description

The cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) was a species of bear that lived in Eurasia(it's fossils have been found in many caves including from Alborz mountains,Iran) during the Pleistocene and became extinct at the beginning of the Last Glacial Maximum, about 27,500 years ago.
Both the name "cave" and the scientific name spelaeus derive from the fact that fossils of this species were mostly found in caves, indicating this species may have spent more time in caves than the brown bear, which uses caves only for hibernation. Consequently, in the course of time, whole layers of bones, almost entire skeletons, were found in many caves.(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cave_bea…)

The animal is created by Artrage4 and PS CS6. 
I hope you like it:-)
