## Abstract We measured the lengths and diameters of four long bones from 118 terrestrial carnivoran species using museum specimens. Though intrafamilial regressions scaled linearly, nearly all intraordinal regressions scaled non‐linearly. The observed non‐linear scaling of bone dimensions within t
