Acorn

The acorn, or oaknut, is the nut of the oaks and their close relatives (genera Quercus and Lithocarpus, in the family Fagaceae).

See Atlas bear and Acorn

Africa

Africa is the world's second-largest and second-most populous continent after Asia.

See Atlas bear and Africa

African leopard

The African leopard (Panthera pardus pardus) is the nominate subspecies of the leopard, native to many countries in Africa.

See Atlas bear and African leopard

American black bear

The American black bear (Ursus americanus), also known as the black bear, is a species of medium-sized bear endemic to North America.

See Atlas bear and American black bear

Atlas Mountains

The Atlas Mountains are a mountain range in the Maghreb in North Africa.

See Atlas bear and Atlas Mountains

Barbary lion

The Barbary lion was a population of the lion subspecies Panthera leo leo. Atlas bear and Barbary lion are Extinct mammals of Africa, mammal extinctions since 1500 and Mammals of North Africa.

Bear

Bears are carnivoran mammals of the family Ursidae.

See Atlas bear and Bear

Before Present

Before Present (BP) or "years before present (YBP)" is a time scale used mainly in archaeology, geology, and other scientific disciplines to specify when events occurred relative to the origin of practical radiocarbon dating in the 1950s.

See Atlas bear and Before Present

Brown bear

The brown bear (Ursus arctos) is a large bear native to Eurasia and North America.

See Atlas bear and Brown bear

Clade

In biological phylogenetics, a clade, also known as a monophyletic group or natural group, is a grouping of organisms that are monophyletic – that is, composed of a common ancestor and all its lineal descendants – on a phylogenetic tree.

See Atlas bear and Clade

Extinction

Extinction is the termination of a taxon by the death of its last member.

See Atlas bear and Extinction

Heinrich Rudolf Schinz

Heinrich Rudolf Schinz (30 March 1777 – 8 March 1861) was a Swiss physician and naturalist.

See Atlas bear and Heinrich Rudolf Schinz

Herbivore

A herbivore is an animal anatomically and physiologically adapted to eating plant material, for example foliage or marine algae, for the main component of its diet.

See Atlas bear and Herbivore

Iberian Peninsula

The Iberian Peninsula (IPA), also known as Iberia, is a peninsula in south-western Europe, defining the westernmost edge of Eurasia.

See Atlas bear and Iberian Peninsula

Lake Akfadou

Lake Akfadou, also known as Black Lake, is situated within the Djurdjura Mountains, within the boundaries of the Djurdjura National Park.

See Atlas bear and Lake Akfadou

Libya

Libya, officially the State of Libya, is a country in the Maghreb region of North Africa.

Mitochondrial DNA

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA and mDNA) is the DNA located in the mitochondria organelles in a eukaryotic cell that converts chemical energy from food into adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

See Atlas bear and Mitochondrial DNA

Molecular ecology

Molecular ecology is a field of evolutionary biology that is concerned with applying molecular population genetics, molecular phylogenetics, and more recently genomics to traditional ecological questions (e.g., species diagnosis, conservation and assessment of biodiversity, species-area relationships, and many questions in behavioral ecology).

See Atlas bear and Molecular ecology

Morocco

Morocco, officially the Kingdom of Morocco, is a country in the Maghreb region of North Africa.

See Atlas bear and Morocco

North Africa

North Africa (sometimes Northern Africa) is a region encompassing the northern portion of the African continent. There is no singularly accepted scope for the region, and it is sometimes defined as stretching from the Atlantic shores of the Western Sahara in the west, to Egypt and Sudan's Red Sea coast in the east.

See Atlas bear and North Africa

Omnivore

An omnivore is an animal that has the ability to eat and survive on both plant and animal matter.

See Atlas bear and Omnivore

Polar bear

The polar bear (Ursus maritimus) is a large bear native to the Arctic and nearby areas.

See Atlas bear and Polar bear

Population

Population is the term typically used to refer to the number of people in a single area.

See Atlas bear and Population

Sympatry

In biology, two related species or populations are considered sympatric when they exist in the same geographic area and thus frequently encounter one another.

See Atlas bear and Sympatry

Tétouan

Tétouan (tiṭwān), is a city in northern Morocco.

See Atlas bear and Tétouan

Viking Press

Viking Press (formally Viking Penguin, also listed as Viking Books) is an American publishing company owned by Penguin Random House.
