Pleistocene and. Holocene Records of Antilocapra Americana: A Review of the FAUNMAP Data
@article{Walker2000PleistoceneAH, title={Pleistocene and. Holocene Records of Antilocapra Americana: A Review of the FAUNMAP Data}, author={Danny N. Walker}, journal={Plains Anthropologist}, year={2000}, volume={45}, pages={13 - 28} }
Abstract FAUNMAP is an electronic database documenting the late Quaternary (Pleistocene and Holocene) distribution of mammal species in the United States, developed at the Illinois State Museum with support from the National Science Foundation. The primary purpose of the database is to investigate evolution of mammalian communities, although individual species distributions are readily examined. With a Geographic Information System (GIS), changes in the distributions of individual species and…

Mortality date estimation using fetal pronghorn remains
- Environmental Science
- 2008
To investigate the reliability of fetal remains for seasonality and mortality event assessment, bone size and tooth eruption were measured in a sample of modern fetal pronghorn remains with known mortality dates, and results indicate a strong correlation between bone sizeand mortality date, but no significant correlation between tooth eruption level and mortality date.
