Fig. 3 in Dietary niches of creodonts and carnivorans of the late Eocene Cypress Hills Formation

Fig. 3.—Prey focus masses and prey mass spectra are based on regressions by Volmer et al. (2016). Silhouettes represent an example of prey animal for some of the size categories, as indicated by the vertical dashed lines. Horizontal dark gray bars show the range of prey mass categories for each species, and light gray bars show how those categories would extend if the species exhibited group hunting or scavenging behavior. Species codes and data can be found in Table 1. Note that we have included examples of species that occurred at the Calf Creek as examples of prey species in various size classes that may have lived concurrently to the species in this study.
