Arterial supply and venous drainage of the brain of the black bear (Ursus americanus). I. Gross anatomical distribution.
A morphological study of the intracranial vessels of the Black bear (Ursus americanus) was undertaken. The object was to provide basic information related to the vascular pattern in these animals as compared with other carnivores and with the human. Vascular casts were prepared from 6 animals. The vasculature of the brain disclosed patterns comparable to other species previously studied.
