Cave Bear - Skull complete with Mandibles - Ursus spelaeus - 25×45×23 cm

David Leggett

Selected by David Leggett
From my private collection: Ursus spelaeus (male) Pleistocene Ural Mountains Russia Approx. 45 x 25 x 23 cm. During an expedition in the Ural Mountains in the then Soviet Union (1989) we excavated a number of cave skeletons and skulls for scientific purposes. The most beautiful and complete skull I received from the institute for my private collection. The skull is 100% original and only in some small, vulnerable areas minimally reinforced with some plastic. (slightly darker) The details of these skulls, see photos, are amazing. In short, this is the most beautiful and complete cave bear skull I have ever owned. The skull is currently in the Netherlands and is sent from there (can also be picked up of course)
