Talk:Short face bear

No longer a re-direct

this entry has been re-directed to Arctodus simus for some time, and I figured since there are two (extinct) species in this genus, i could at least turn this into a stub. feel free to expand, improve and research! - Metanoid (talk, email) 05:38, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

merge?

i've only just changed this from a redirect to Arctodus simus. what gives? - Metanoid (talk, email) 07:49, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There usually isn't enough info about extinct animals to have articles down to species level. With Arctodus species, only difference would be size and maybe place of discovery, the rest would be identical info, so there's no reason to have separate articles.
