Resumo

The new site of Tip-Tugai Cave (52°59’28.6”N, 57°00’22.3”E) is described. The bone-bearing layer is dated at MIS 3 isotope stage based in the fauna of small mammals. Finds of abundant remains of Crocuta spelaea individuals of different ages and the presence of large herbivores bones with hyena gnaw marks indicate that the Tip-Tugai Cave was used as a hyena den in the Late Pleistocene. This is the first described cave hyena den in the Urals.
