Owls, Caves, and Fossils: Predation, Preservation, and Accumulation of Small Mammal Bones in Caves, With an Analysis of the Pleistocene Cave Faunas F

Owls, Caves, and Fossils is the first comprehensive, fully illustrated account of small mammal taphonomy. The study of small mammal remains has previously been neglected in favor of such large mammals as elephants, bovids, and carnivores, and Andrews remedies this deficiency by analyzing the taphonomic processes significant in the preservation of small mammal fauna in caves.
