Arctotherium ("bear beast") is an extinct genus of the Pleistocene short-faced bears endemic to Central and South America. [1] Arctotherium migrated from North America to South America during the Great American Interchange, following the formation of the Isthmus of Panama during the late Pliocene.
Most bears are 1.2–2 m (4–7 ft) long, plus a 3–20 cm (1–8 in) tail, though the polar bear is 2.2–2.44 m (7–8 ft) long, and some subspecies of brown bear can be up to 2.8 m (9 ft). Weights range greatly from the sun bear , which can be as low as 35 kg (77 lb), to the polar bear, which can be as high as 726 kg (1,600 lb).
