Biology:Arctocyonia

From HandWiki

Arctocyonia (Arctocyonians; also known as "Procreodi") (from Ancient Greek ἄρκτος (árktos), meaning "bear", and κύων (kúon), meaning "dog", and thus, "bear-dog") were a clade of Ferungulata mammals that roamed North America, Europe, and possibly Asia from the Early Paleocene to the Early Eocene epoch.[1][2][3] While some classify arctocyonians as stem-artiodactyls,[4][5] others have classified the group as members of Ferae.[6] There are two families classified in the order: Arctocyonidae and Oxyclaenidae.[7]
