I just realized that apparently I never shared this series here on Tumblr??  
I call it Living Paintings, as they are recreations of extinct animals that some artists actually saw and painted from memory, a long time ago.

A fossilized canine tooth of a cave bear, or Ursus spelaeus from the Drachenhöhle in Mixnitz, Austria. The fossils of these prehistoric bears were commonly found during times of war as byproducts of phosphate mining.

Maybe, just maybe, you’ll get some answers.
And maybe, just maybe... he had a reason not to tell you.

Cave bears. They have a little projected scene featuring humans spearfishing in a river outside.

What kind of bear do you think Beorn turns into/ My sister thinks its a grizzley bear, but I think it woul be cooler if he were a Polar Bear because they're bigger and cooler looking
To be honest, I think that Beorn transforms into a Cave Bear, mostly because judging by the complexity of their fossilized molars, it's a commonly held theory that the Cave Bears diet consisted largely of vegetation such as berries, roots, and leaves. They did occasionally eat meat, but it was things such as fish, insects, and very occasionally small mammals. 
Which I think fits perfectly with Beorn, I can’t ever see him eating another animal even when he’s in his bear form. Plus, it ALSO fits in perfectly with the "Middle Earth is just Ancient Earth" theory.
For those who aren't aware, Cave Bears lived across Europe in parts of Asia during the Last Ice Age around 24,000 years ago. On average they were the same size as Polar Bears, which usually weight between 400 - 1000 kg (about 900 - 2,200 pounds.) They’re built very similarly to Brown/Grizzly Bears just with different teeth and slightly differently shaped heads.
