Huracan is an extinct genus of agriotheriin ailuropodine bear from the Late Miocene to Early Pleistocene. Fossils were found from North America and Eastern Asia. Unlike its modern relative the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), which is a bamboo specialist, Huracan was a hypercarnivorous (or omnivorous) genus of bear that had adaptations for cursoriality.
