TL;DR:
Novel architectural data is presented on two additional carnivoran families—Ursidae and Canidae—and supplement these previous studies with additional felid, musteloid, herpestid, hyaenid, and viverrid taxa to reflect the increased morphological and dietary diversity of musteloids relative to other carnivoran groups.
