Dear Vesna It sounds like you are way ahead on this project! Probably the best way forward would be for me to just add to your work. If you can send me the powerpoint and any related materials I will add in the N Atlantic material and anything else that I can think of (I think I have first geneation Boessneck imgages) and send it back for your revisions- this sounds like it should be your project. I have gotten a number of messages from people interested in the project (just O/C would be really useful) and I think you could get lots of takers for the final product- I will be happy to spread the word here. I'll send you some reports and digital images on CD. I'm afraid our bear specimen is an adult (who seems to have had a hard life, lots of trauma and arthritic lesions), but I suspect that the best place for polar bears of all ages (and an excellent collection of arctic species generally) is the Zoologiske Museum of the U Copenhagen (Kim Aaris Sorensen and Jeppe Mohl would be good contacts). We are also working on scanning our bird collection (mainly N Atlantic) and will be glad to supply images to anyone (jpegs unless you ask for something else) Best Tom On Fri, 21 Feb 2003 11:29:51 +0100, Vesna Dimitrijevic <[log in to unmask]> wrote : > This is a multi-part message in MIME format. > > > Dear Thomas, > thank you for asking! I am also in process of making up a MS PowerPoint presentation, My idea is to make identification easier, so that I don't have to "jump" constantly and look through books and papers over and over again. It should be also a very useful "reminder" where to look. My ambition is to "cover" teeth and bones of , let's say "common species of European prehistory". Until now, I have been dealing with Ovis/Capra at the most. I have taken drawings and explanations from the "classics": Boessneck, Prummel and Gromova (unfortunately, I had to scan photocopies of papers because I don't have originals; as a consequence, some pictures are dirty). I scanned bones from my collection too, but drawings are usually more explicit. > I would like to share, very much. Finalized PowerPoint presentations, but also digitalized papers useful for this kind of job. > > And, I would love polar bear digital album.
