Brown bear (Ursus arctos) (9880 ± 35 BP) from late-glacial Champlain Sea deposits at Saint-Nicolas, Quebec, Canada, and the dispersal history of brown bears

Journal ArticleDOI
Using a Novel Absolute Ontogenetic Age Determination Technique to Calculate the Timing of Tooth Eruption in the Saber-Toothed Cat, Smilodon fatalis.
TL;DR: This technique for absolute ontogenetic age determination can be replicated in other ancient species, including non-saber-toothed taxa, as long as the timing of growth initiation and growth rate can be determined for a specific feature, such as a tooth, and that growth period overlaps with the development of the other features under investigation.

Pre-Late Wisconsinan Pleistocene biota from southeastern Michigan, U.S.A.
TL;DR: A finite 14C age of 48.3 ± 0.8 ka (QL-1215) was later supplemented by a TL date of 57 ± 9 ka, but perhaps as old as 300 ka as discussed by the authors.
