The study of fossilised remains of herbivorous animals,
particularly those rare findings with well-preserved
gastrointestinal tracts filled with plant remains, is crucial to
our understanding of the environment in which they lived.
Summarizing 30 years of research, Ukraintseva presents evidence on
plants once eaten by Siberia's major herbivorous mammals. The
collection of pollen and plant spores from food remains sheds light
on the vegetation of these ancient habitats, enabling researchers
to reconstruct local floras of the time. This also promotes further
insight into the causes of the extinction of various species due to
changing environmental conditions and food availability. Providing
a history of the research undertaken, the book also includes
specific chapters on the Cherski horse and bison, along with the
vegetation and climate of Siberia in the late Anthropogene period,
making it a lasting reference tool for graduate students and
researchers in the field.
