In order to explain the reasons for the extinction of the Ursus spelaeus we will provide data concerning the transition between the Middle and Upper Pa/aeolithic based on two archaeological sites, the Arbreda Cave and the Ermitons Cave (Cata/onia), located in the northeastern Iberian Peninsula, one of the southern areas of distribution of this Ursidae
