SPECTACLED BEAR
Age: 85 million years
Period: Cretaceous
Location: Zhou Kou Dian, Fang Shan County, Beijing, China
These members of the family Ursidae are carnivorous mammals. Today, spectacled bears sur-
vive only in South America. Like pandas, they are on the verge of becoming extinct.
This Andean bear fossil, in which all the details of the skull have been preserved, reveals
that this species has remained the same at all times. The tooth structure, eye sockets, jaw
structure etc. of this animal that lived 85 million years ago all reveal that spectacled bears
have remained unchanged for tens of millions of years, in other words, that they never
evolved. The fact revealed by this and other fossil discoveries is that Creation, not blind co-
incidences, represents the origin of living things.
