In prehistoric times, when cavemen roamed, one step into the wrong cavern could mean death. In what is now Europe and Asia, many caves were home to a mammoth bear-bigger than any alive today. The cave bear didn't eat much meat, but its killer jaws and claws could have ended the life of intruders with a single swipe. Some scientists think that cavemen teamed up to kill this beast; it not only provided food, but the hunters could then take over the bear's cave! Cave Bears Cannot climb trees These bears only found in Europe and Asia and They lived in the Ice Age and They Are Borned in 1794
The common and scientific name for the species comes from their remains having been found largely in caves. This reflects the views of experts that cave bears spent more time in caves than the brown bear, frequently using them to hibernate during the winter months. Unlike brown bears, cave bears are thought to have been almost entirely or exclusively herbivorous.
Cave bears exhibit a great degree of size, morphological and genetic variability, and Late Pleistocene cave bears are often (though not universally) considered to be species complex of up to 6 different species.
