	MavicaNET - Carnivores (Carnivora)
		Carnivora is the order of eutherian mammals that includes wolves -- like this arctic wolf -- dogs, cats, raccoons, bears, weasels, hyaenas, seals, and walruses, to name just a few.
		It is also true that not all Carnivora are carnivorous; some, such as bears and raccoons, ; are decidedly omnivorous, and at least one, the panda, is primarily vegetarian.
		But the Carnivora are a clearly monophyletic group that is first known from the late Paleocene and whose primitive food habits were carnivorous.

		Carnivora is the order of eutherian mammals that includes wolves, dogs, cats, raccoons, bears, weasels, hyaenas, seals, and walruses, to name just a few.
		Most carnivores are land animals, but an important and highly specialized group of carnivores, the pinnipeds or "fin-feet," have taken up life in the oceans; pinnipeds include seals, sea lions, and walruses.
		Hunting and trapping of wild carnivores for fur, and the destruction of habitats around the world have also contributed towards bringing many carnivore species to extinction or to the brink of extinction.

		All carnivora have simple stomachs, and are exceptional predators.
		Inside the order of carnivora are the families of canidae, felidae, ursidae, etc. The geneses of those three are canis, felis, and ursis.

		It is even possible that the dogs, wolves, foxes and their relatives evolved as an independent line from their own maicid ancestor and might deserve recognition as a third major subdivision of the modern Carnivora.
		The carnivores are the dominate flesh-eating mammals (Urocyon cinereoargenteus), although hunting as a way of life is shared by others such as seals and some whales.
		In fact, the words Carnivora and Carnivore mean "meat-eater." But this characteristic of the group can be misleading, because a few species (such as a few bears) do not eat flesh.

		Carnivora does not include all meat-eating mammals (and not all members of the order Carnivora eat meat).
		Members of the order Carnivora have a simple stomach and a characteristic tooth pattern that includes the carnassial pair (an enlarged fourth upper premolar and lower first molar); most carnivora have a primitive number of incisors.

	Duke University IGSP Site -- Single origin of Malagasy Carnivora from an African ancestor Nature 2003 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The Carnivora are one of only four orders of terrestrial mammals living in Madagascar today.
		All four (carnivorans, primates, rodents and lipotyphlan insectivores) are placental mammals with limited means for dispersal, yet they occur on a large island that has been surrounded by a formidable oceanic barrier for at least 88 million years, predating the age of origin for any of these groups.
		The mystery of the island's mammalian origins is confounded by its poor Tertiary fossil record, which leaves us with no direct means for estimating dates of initial diversification.

	Systematics of the Carnivora
		Traditionally, the Carnivora have been classified in two suborders: the Pinnipedia, which includes the seals and sea lions, and the Fissipedia, which includes all land-dwelling carnivores.
		Some scientists treat the Pinnipedia as a separate order from the Carnivora, while others include them in the Carnivora.
		Exactly how the various carnivores are interrelated is a problem that has not been solved to the satisfaction of all.

	The Cats (Family Felidae; Order Carnivora)
		Females have between two and four pairs of mammae and in males the baculum is vestigial or absent.
		Cats, with the notable exception of lions and to a lesser extent domestic cats, are habitually solitary, however they are sometimes are found in pairs (either m/m, f/f or m/f) or larger groups consisting of a single adult female and her immature young.
		The archaeological evidence suggests that the cat lineage branched off from the ancestral Miacoidea (the stem group of all the Carnivora) about 45 million years ago (MYA).
