Overview

The bones of a bear's paw look much like those of a human hand. While the difference between human and non-human remains are generally evident, some can cause confusion to specialists who receive skeletal remains for analysis. This reference of comparative animal osteology provides a wealth of data and techniques to help identify animal remains. It includes over 400 photographs, as well as numerous forensic comparisons of non-human and human remains. It includes discussion of confusing species identification commonly encountered, as well as tips for identifying juvenile remains. The text also reviews techniques used to determine species when skeletal elements are too fragmentary for routine identification purposes.
