Hemicyon

''Hemicyon'' the so-called "dog-bear," literally "Half Dog" (Greek:ἡμικυων/"hemi-kuôn"), is an extinct genus of the family ''Hemicyonidae'', which probably originated in Eurasia but was found in Europe, Asia and North America during the Miocene epoch (), existing for approximately .〔(PaleoBiology Database: ''Hemicyon'', basic info )〕
==Morphology==

''Hemicyon'' was about long, and tall, with somewhat tiger-like proportions and dog-like teeth. ''Hemicyon'' is widely accepted to have been hypercarnivorous and highly predaceous. Unlike modern bears, Hemicyon walked on its toes, that is, it was not plantigrade, but digitigrade, with long metapodials. This suggests that Hemicyonidae must have been an active hunter and a good runner, and presumably hunted on the plains, possibly in packs. This also distinguishes it from the true bears, which are plantigrade, and gives it a greater affinity to dogs, which are digitigrade.
