Data from: A mummified Pleistocene gray wolf pup
Here we describe the oldest, most complete wolf pup mummy discovered to date: "Zhùr", as she was named by the local indigenous Tr'ondëk Hwëch'in community was discovered in 2016 in Yukon, Canada, and is complete with skin, fur, and other soft tissues. We infer that Zhùr died ~57,...
